Coming to India, our country presently has a Student Loan Debt of ₹84,965 crores, or we can say around $11.08 Billion.

We join our supporters in taking a collective sigh of relief knowing that @BetsyDeVosED will no longer head @usedgov. Student loan advocates are optimistic that @JoeBiden’s nominee, @teachcardona, will be a stronger champion for 45 million Americans carrying #studentdebt.
@Usedgov faces major challenges in the months ahead, but we cannot ignore the #studentdebtcrisis for a second longer. We expect @teachcardona to immediately work to enact broad-based student debt cancellation.

“Loeffler, a former asset management executive, may well now have joined the "frenzy" of Wall Street money managers who leapt at a loophole in President Trump's 2017 tax bill that turns private jets into flying tax shelters.” #SenateRunoff #VoteRevRaphaelWARNOCK

“We must create a public option to make Medicare available for all those who want it. The best health care I’ve ever had was when I was on military-provided Tricare, similar to Medicare, and I believe that kind of high-quality care should be made available to all Americans.” 2/20
