These 13 vulnerable Republicans are being targeted in 2024 with one simple message

Raw Story  

WASHINGTON — Supporters of student loan debt cancellation are organizing to hold GOP lawmakers “accountable” in the 2024 election cycle following the U.S. Supreme Court ruling blocking President Joe Biden’s debt relief plan. The left-leaning Protect Borrowers Action will target 13 U.S. House districts across California, Colorado, Michigan, Nebraska, New York, Oregon and Pennsylvania where Republicans opposed Biden’s plan to forgive up to $20,000 for roughly 40 million qualifying student loan borrowers. “That’s why this project is so important and why we see this issue of student debt so critical to the fight to center dignity for working people and make sure the economy works for everybody, not just those rich and privileged few.” The targeted lawmakers include: California Kevin Kiley, 3rd District Mike Garcia, 27th District Ken Calvert, 41st District Michelle Steel, 45th District Colorado Lauren Boebert, 3rd District Michigan John James, 10th District Nebraska Don Bacon, 2nd District New York Nick LaLota, 1st District Anthony D’Esposito, 4th District Mike Lawler, 17th District Brandon Williams, 22nd District Oregon Lori Chavez-DeRemer, 5th District Pennsylvania Scott Perry, 10th District Biden announced his one-time student loan debt relief program in August 2022. Too much time has been wasted on empty promises, and not enough time has been spent on making sure borrowers are prepared to begin making payments again.” The White House lambasted the decision and announced what it called new actions to provide debt relief for student loan borrowers, including its Saving on a Valuable Education, or SAVE, plan, which the administration says will cut payments for low earners.
