Lucas,
sign the petition from Daily Kos and a wide coalition to President Obama
and Congress: Cancel all student debt.
- Americans now owe $1.3 trillion in student debt. This is a crushing burden for more than 40 million Americans and their families. ( source)
- Eighty-six percent of that money is owed to the United States government. ( source)
- If most of this money is owed to the U.S. government, we can take action to have the debt forgiven. As a country, we should not be in the business of profiting off the education of our citizens.
Sign the petition by Daily Kos and a wide coalition to President Obama
and Congress: Take immediate action to forgive all student debt, public
and private.
Keep fighting,
Paul Hogarth, Daily Kos
