I received the following email from President Biden or someone on his staff and signed by Joe. It was in response to a thank you email I wrote to him following my student loan being forgiven through a program initiated by his administration. Here's Biden's letter:
September 6, 2023
Dear Mr. Shay,
Thank you for your support for our shared values, particularly on the issue of student loan debt relief.
We are facing an inflection point in history, and the decisions we make today are going to decide the course of this Nation for decades to come. We still have a lot of work to do, but I know there is nothing we can’t do if we do it together.
I have never been more optimistic about America’s future than I am today. Keep the faith!
Sincerely,
Joe Biden
I blogged about the loan forgiveness here. I admire the fact that President Biden is optimistic about America's future. I shall try to follow in his example although Republicans make that a challenge.
This came from a recent post from the office of U.S. Senator and multimillionaire Mitt Romney of Utah:
The Administration’s new student loan rule would worsen inflation and add to our $32 trillion national debt. Proud to join my colleagues on this resolution to overturn this irresponsible and unfair student loan scheme.
Reminder to Romney: Much of that national debt can be traced back to the tax cut for millionaires and billionaires pushed through Congress by the GOP under Rich Guy President Donald Trump. But Mitt would rather make life difficult for the 4,000-some Utahans (according to the Deseret News) who could qualify for loan forgiveness under Biden's new plan. We aren't as numerous in Wyoming. yet there are plenty of student-loan debtors working low-paying full-time jobs or two even lower-paying part-time jobs. Give them a break. Give us all a break.
