we need a complete and total pause on student loan payments until we can figure out what's going on in the western Massachusetts lesbian bar

[Mike Pierce @millennial_debt]

Last week @TheProspect's @jamesjbaratta broke news from inside *a fucking gala* thrown by college financial aid officials, paid for by the student loan industry.

Trump cut back hundreds of billions in student aid.

School officials *drank champagne.*

New: The Trump admin confirmed in a legal filing that borrowers will not be required to move off the SAVE plan until September 29 "at the earliest."

ED said most borrowers "will get even more time than that."

You might not want to leave SAVE just yet.

Apollo Wants Investors to Buy Back the University of Phoenix. They Shouldn't. https://t.co/03p0omkYID

[Rob Galbraith @RobCGalbraith]

Fun fact for parents: Apollo also owns Lifetouch, which means that Marc Rowan gets a cut the money you pay for school photos and yearbooks. One of many private equity siphons jammed into our schools to suck out money to further enrich billionaires

[CFU UAW @CfuUaw]

Great to come together with colleagues and siblings across the university and the region to stand against billionaires like Marc Rowan trying to disassemble our universities.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

Happening Now: 100+ people rally outside of Apollo Management Group headquartered in NYC to protest its CEO Marc Rowan, the conservative billionaire behind Trump's Higher Ed compact deal that undermines universities ‼️

[PSC/CUNY @PSC_CUNY]

PSC members are standing with our siblings from higher education institutions citywide to protest billionaire oligarch Marc Rowan, the man behind Trump’s authoritarian “compact” for universities.

We reject the hatred, and suppression the compact represents! #RowanOutOfHigherEd

[Braxton 🟥 @Braxtonbrew96]

The Dept of Education being dismantled has many consequences. One of them is that the agency operates a bank for 40M people w/ student debt. If our creditor is being dismantled, we debtors should get organized. I'm pitching @StrikeDebt as that organizing container right now.

@MorePerfectUS MAGA just voted to cut healthcare for millions

[David Hogg 🟧 @davidhogg111]

Think about the impression this election will send to the establishment — replacing one of the oldest members of Congress with the youngest.

@Deja_Foxx has gained 25 POINTS in ONE MONTH. She is within single digits of winning this race and we need YOUR HELP‼️

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Many seniors can’t afford dental care, hearing aids or glasses.

I’m proud that all Democrats supported my amendment last night to expand Medicare to cover dental, hearing and vision paid for by cutting prescription drug costs for Medicare in half.

No Republicans voted for it.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

McGovern: "So I say to my Republican colleagues -- what's wrong with you people? In this bill you provide a $2 billion tax break for gun silencers, but you cut SNAP benefits for vulnerable families. Jesus Christ!"

[Protect Borrowers @BorrowerJustice]

Satra D. Taylor: It has become clear that this Admin is intent on making college once again exclusive to white, male, and wealthy individuals. These political attacks, disguised as rulemaking, are inequitable and target communities from historically marginalized backgrounds."

[Protect Borrowers @BorrowerJustice]

SHAME. This rulemaking process was political theater aimed at weaponizing student debt to silence speech.

[Protect Borrowers @BorrowerJustice]

ED never meant for this Neg Reg to be anything more than a show. They silenced dissent by cutting critical voices from the committee. They crammed months of negotiations into 1 session.

This was always a gift to McMahon & Trump, using student debt to push a fascist agenda.

[Ashley Pizzuti @ashleypizzuti]

@CoryBooker For-profit colleges are being handed golden keys to rip off students, and taxpayers with no accountability. Borrower Defense is buried in this bill.

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

Shameful.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

We told Senator Britt this bill would kill working people and she smirked as the elevator doors closed.
