I smell an ad brewing.
In 2017 the Republican led House and Senate passed and Trump signed into law legislation to give $1.7 trillion in tax breaks to the billionaire class that you and your children will have to pay for. Today, debt relief for hard-working families was blocked by those same Republicans. Don't you think it's time they got fired? Harris/Walz. On the side of the working class.
Dems cannot let this go without a challenge. The GOP is giving the openings for their undoing, and the dems need to use them fiercely.
Republican messaging is that it's a government handout, to the liberal elite, the leftist woke mob, and we paid our fair share to go to college, so they should too! You took the loans, you pay them back!
Or at least that's what I see whenever I feel masochistic enough to look at the comments on broader social media. Those are the points that need to be countered.
Regardless of anything else, I give Biden credit for fighting like hell for this.
I've seen people somehow complain about him not getting this done, but like it's really clear he's doing all he can.
What standing, exactly, do these states have to sue over this?
Of "Fuck you", thats whose standing
—Them, absolutely
If I remember correctly, it's the fact that these loans are held by companies who pay state tax. If the loans are paid out by the federal government, the states' future tax revenues will be diminished.
we need that money in case a corporation needs a bailout!
Legal people are just better, you shiti organic
We're not allowed to have breadcrumbs
How about all of the grifters who took advantage of Trump’s PPP scam pay back every penny they stole from taxpayers? Republicans can go eat shit.
Oh it wasn’t the Fifth Circuit this time. The 8th has issues, too.
