Biden’s loan forgiveness plan helped millions breathe – but worries have returned for those struggling to pay back
Over the last few decades, the American dream has shifted for the lives of millions of Americans. What once were aspirations to own a home, start a family and lead a successful career has given way to a bigger force: paying off student debt.
Those were the people Joe Biden was addressing when he outlined his plans to cancel $10,000 in student debt for 26 million Americans making less than $125,000 last summer. “People can start to finally crawl out from under that mountain of debt,” Biden said at the time.
