If you’re someone who supports M4A or stock trading bans or credit card interest cap/student debt relief, there’s a chance Blue Dog Dems will be the hold up for two years. Figure out if your representative is photographed here—and go ahead and memorize their DC office number.

The centrist Blue Dog Coalition is taking a class photo with its new members:

A reminder that the vast majority of credit card debt is actually medical debt.

[Watcher.Guru @WatcherGuru]

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Senate Democrats prepare to impose 10% cap on credit card interest rates.

[René 🟥🚩🇵🇸 @rcmoya84]

"Don't do anything, just deliver" is the stupidest, most hollow form of politics. It turns out "delivering" might require "dusting off" items from our wish list because the standard fare won't cut it.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

The American people gave our new Democratic majority our marching orders: bring down costs, stop the chaos, and clean up the corruption in our government.

We are going to spend every second of every day striving to deliver on the mandate voters sent us and prove ourselves worthy of Americans’ trust.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

An entire election driven by "affordability" with an overwhelming sweep for Democrats over Republicans. What are you going to do about student loans @SenSchumer @RepJeffries ?? $2 trillion worth of student debt is weighing down our economy. Do something this Congress and soon.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

Trump's One Big Bullshit Bill caused student debt payments to increase — for some folks, by ten-fold.

Senator Sanders spoke to some of our members who are in desperate need of relief.

"They did garnish my wages. I have the paystubs here."

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

Democrats should put a bill on Trump's desk banning Social Security checks from being garnished to pay back student loans. Student loans are a trap — at the least, we should make sure seniors can live with dignity. Social Security should be off limits. Codfiy it into law.

[Braxton 🟥 @Braxtonbrew96]

weird example to use when the biggest story in Kansas was that Marshall sued his patients for medical debt. Hamilton won bc of widespread Democratic opposition to anathemas like medical debt and a commodified health care system

Americans owe about $1.50 for every $1 they earn.

A girl pulled up her checking account in front of me last night. 52 bucks in there. She was about 30. My goodness, man.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

Should we continue to expect high student debt bills @hakeemjeffries ?

[Team Hakeem @teamhakeemhq]

Leader @HakeemJeffries announces Democrats’ agenda starting on Day One:

—Launch new oversight efforts to crack down on Trump’s corruption
—End Trump’s war of choice in Iran and lower gas prices
—Reverse Trump’s Medicaid cuts
—Reverse Trump’s SNAP cuts
—End the Trump tariffs to lower prices
—Extend the ACA tax credits to lower health care costs

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

fuck it let’s cap credit card interest at negative 1%

[John Cusack @johncusack]

Pass the billionaire tax
Eliminate student and medical debt

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

Good morning. 58 days until we expect Secretary of Education Linda McMahon to be issued a subpoena.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

Just keep going.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

Put a student debt cancellation bill on Trump's desk.

[Substance @SimplySubstance]

“Trump is a funny guy, I don’t think he’s all that ideological. I think he’s a politician and I’m not so sure that he will react all that negatively to a progressive agenda, believe it or not.”

Bernie Sanders on pushing for a progressive agenda despite Trump having veto powers.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

Then put a medical debt cancellation bill on his desk.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

@SassClassNiceAs ? we are against tax *breaks* for billionaires. we are for *taxing* billionaires.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

And the thing is, canceling student debt does more for the economy than tax breaks for billionaires. It’s a no brainer.

[Dustin Genereux @DustinGenereux]

I totally support cancelling student loan debt for 45 million students because they canceled trillions in taxes for billionaires.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

This entire election was about "affordability." If the same 41 million people with student debt still have their balance and high payments going into 2028 (especially without believing Dems fought to cancel it) we will be leaving massive leverage on the table.

[Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed]

You know what would solidify the Dem's stronghold for generations to come? Doing something about the $1.863 trillion in student debt people around the country carry. Hit people's pockets quick and hard.
