Right now, Black Americans are more likely to borrow money for college and have a harder time paying off student loan debt. Our plan to cancel student loan debt would increase wealth for Black families, help them avoid default, and start to close the racial wealth gap.
I will be honest and say it’s getting really scary to serve with people with guns, who dehumanize and target you.
I fear that with no accountability, no recourse and calls to “move on” will turn this toxic environment into a deadly situation.
@AOC You are so brave. I hope you get way more love than hate, and are inspired to keep going by knowing how many lives you’re positively impacting. SO MUCH LOVE. 💓
Canceling student loan debt would immediately put money in the pockets of millions of Americans. It would help dig our economy out of this crisis. And we don’t have to wait for Congress: the Biden-Harris administration can get it done with their executive authority.
Take just 3 minutes and listen to @JamaalBowmanNY, @AOC, @AyannaPressley, @EWarren & @BernieSanders explain what's at stake & the moral imperative for robust progressive reforms.
It's time for boldness.
Elections have consequences.
Biden within hours of taking the oath of office was able to: revoke Muslim ban, rejoin Paris Climate Agreement,
extend federal eviction moratorium,
rescind Census orders to exclude non-citizens, preserve/fortify DACA and much more.
It’s a new day.
As we reflect on the contributions of Dr. King, let us build on his legacy by securing the promise of justice for all.
By ensuring our voices were heard in the streets and at the ballot box, we renewed our fight to make the dream a reality. But the work continues. #MLKDay
Goodnight, family.
Be wise with your energy.
Be informed (about good that’s happening, too).
Be careful with your mental health.
Be aware that justice is a continuum.
As my father said, “Justice at its best is love correcting everything that stands against love.”
Let's make it permanent by ending Citizens United, abolishing super PACs, getting big money out of politics, and moving to the public funding of elections.
@SeanB95926 Sean the great thing about empathy is there is an unlimited amount- I can feel your pain of losing your job, and I can feel for people who’s lives were put at risk yesterday. Both are horrific, and something should be done about both situations. I hope you get the $2K payments.

We promised we would do our duty, and finish the job.
And we have done so.
The Joint Session of Congress just certified the election of @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris as our next President and Vice-President.
Onward.
