The student debt crisis has spiraled out of control so that now, nearly 45 million people owe more than $1.8 trillion in student debt. This is unsustainable. Fortunately, President Biden has said he will soon announce his plans to address the student debt crisis. Indivisibles have been calling on the president to cancel $50 thousand in debt per borrower through executive order.
As Biden is finalizing his plans, Rep. Mondaire Jones (NY-17) is leading a letter calling on Biden not to include means-testing, income caps, or other restrictions that - while they may be well-intentioned - would have the effect of making debt relief difficult to access, and millions of folks would fall through the cracks.
We need a strong showing of support for bold student debt cancellation, without means testing. That means we need as many members of Congress (MoCs) as possible to sign on to Rep. Jones’s letter. Call now to make sure your MoC has signed on!

Hello, my name is [YOUR NAME] and I am from [CITY/STATE]. I’m encouraging [Rep. Name] sign on to the letter from Rep. Mondaire Jones calling on President Biden to broadly cancel student loan debt, without unnecessary restrictions that will harm the most vulnerable borrowers. Student debt is a crisis, and millions of Americans deserve to feel the benefits of debt relief - but that’s only possible with a simple program that includes everyone.
Will [Rep. Name] be signing on to the letter? The deadline is Friday, May 20th, and I hope to see their name on the final list.
Thank you for calling on your Representative to pressure Biden to cancel student loan debt! Call as many times as you can today and tell all your friends to call as well!
