I am in support of wiping out these student loans. It is an investment in America’s future.

However there should be stipulations. I won’t go into details.

I would like to address those who received COVID-19-related funding (and never paid it back), as a way to stop this injustice regarding student loans.

If student loans must be paid back, so should all COVID-related funding that many of the very wealthy received — even those same people sitting in Congress.

Connect the two as one. No loan forgiveness for students, no COVID-related funding forgiveness for the wealthy.

Let’s stop the inequity and injustice.
