Worthless @GovAbbott dropping off people with no money and no means on Christmas Eve in 15 degree weather near the VP’s residence. How Christian of you, Greg Abbott. Being a heartless POS isn’t going to make you the next Republican President.

We remain confident in our legal authority to carry out the Student Loan Debt Relief program @POTUS & I announced in August.

Borrowers, remember, we will not stop fighting for you.

We’re really letting them off easy calling it a “PPP” loan. Let’s use every word in that acronym. Paycheck Protection Program—those loans were supposed to pay workers wages. 75% of the loans were NOT used to cover payroll. These people owe that money back to the Treasury.

[The White House 46 Archived @WhiteHouse46]

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene had $183,504 in PPP loans forgiven.

What was lost was a lot of social spending — child tax credits, pre-K, and more. These losses are tragic: we will be a poorer, less just society than we could have been (and might yet become if Democrats pull an upset in November) 4/

As I read the REPEAT analysis, this bill's climate action comes pretty close to achieving BBB's goals 3/

[Paul Krugman @paulkrugman]

A lot of focus on how much smaller in dollar terms than the original BBB proposal — although you want to bear in mind that the bipartisan infrastructure bill added about $550 billion spending over baseline. But also important to understand what *wasn't* lost from BBB 2/

The student loan payment pause expires at the end of the month, leaving millions of young people in financial limbo.

President Biden, we need to extend the pause and #CancelStudentDebt.

On the margins of actual policy debate, there's a bit of harassment from "degrowthers" who insist that environmental protection requires an end to growth. Folks, here's a chart 1/

Well, Mr. Market seems to have decided that stagflation isn't happening after all 1/

California is investing in pathways to clean economy jobs for workers through the High Road Training Fund - helping low-income workers prepare for climate-resilient careers.

We’re making the training needed to participate in a clean economy accessible for more communities.

JUST IN: The Biden administration is again extending a pause on federal student loan payments — this time through Aug. 31.

Seems pretty likely to me that the Fed will be hiking into a significant slowdown. To some extent that's OK — the economy is overheated and needs to cool down. But reason to move gradually 6/

[Paul Krugman @paulkrugman]

And as I keep arguing, the relevant expected rate of inflation isn't the 10-year rate — it's something like the 10 year 1 year forward, because near-term inflation due to oil and food isn't relevant to investment 3/ https://t.co/owU6FyiZx3
