Let’s remember this: Up to 4 in 10 people with student loan debt weren’t able to graduate, many because of high costs, so now they’re in the worst of both worlds—crushed by debt, with no diploma to boost their earnings.
Canceling student loan debt would change their lives.
It is critical the Senate pass #S51 to finally grant equal access to our democracy for our fellow Americans in Washington, D.C.
700,000+ Washingtonians — a majority being people of color — deserve full representation in Congress. It is long overdue. #DCStatehoodNow

While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: @ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & @ReverendWarnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black + Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.
