Biden Kicks Off Student Loan Forgiveness

“After weeks of waiting, student loan borrowers can now apply for President Biden’s program to receive up to $20,000 in debt cancellation,” the Washington Post reports.

“Biden officially launched the application Monday after the Education Department opened the form over the weekend as part of a beta test, hoping to find and remedy any glitches. Eight million people have applied to date, the president said at a press event Monday. He estimates that the White House has received some 10,000 letters from borrowers praising one of his signature economic policies.”
