    You should take a second to look up who is in the way of that happening, because it sure as hell isn’t Biden.

      It isn’t Biden, who single-handedly struck a deal as a congressman to ensure students couldn’t declare bankruptcy due to crushing student loan debt? Huh.

        I don’t think the above users meant 1976 when they were talking about Biden’s actions on Student Loans. Just a hunch. Also, technically, Student Loans are dischargeable by Bankruptcy starting 5 years into repayment or sooner in the case of undue hardships.

        That was a long time ago so it isn’t relevant to Biden now /s

        Nonsense.

        They can’t help everyone, or even the majority, but they’re helping as many people as they can.

          Federal student loans were not accruing interest when Biden took office. Now they are. They could have helped everyone by not raising the interest rates.

            They weren’t accruing interest because of COVID. Do you think Biden could have unilaterally kept it at 0% indefinitely?

        One of the other replies mentioned a recent 5 Bn USD forgiveness of Student Debts, but actually the total amount the Biden Admin has forgiven is 132 Bn USD through various means. They also still plan to go through with the full forgiveness that was initially blocked by Conservative State Attorneys and the Supreme Court on June 30th, in total it will forgive 430 Bn USD.
