Happy Fourth of July!

Picture
Happy Fourth Everyone!  
The Founders are on our side.  The Declaration of Independence was in large part a result of the oppressive debt that King George and his friends were putting on the colonists.  When they wrote the Constitution, they called for uniform bankruptcy rights ahead of every right in the Bill of Rights!
Lot's going on right now:
  • Interview Request from NPR
  • Interview Request from the Independent. 
  • Interview Request from the AP.
  • See this radio show we did in Seattle/Chicago/Minneapolis
  • Send a message like this to the President
  • Get us into a meeting with your  House Representative. These meetings are going very well, but we need more of them!
  • Repost this, this and this.
👉Will you PLEASE help us FINALLY knock out our Gofundme, or pitch something in through the normal channels?!  We could have this knocked out today if everyone pitched-in.  Please make this easier on us? 🙏

LET"S GO.

SUPER BUSY!!!

Picture
Hey Everyone!
We are SUPER busy right now! 
  • See Tuesday's WSJ article.  Not great.  Thanks to all who stepped up. 
  • Another, similar interview request here from the Independent.  Hoping for better luck with this one.
  • Yet another interview request from NPR.  This one looks a little suspicious, quite frankl
  • See this radio interview from last week.  We need more of these.   Please make one happen
  • Still meeting daily with congressional staff.  We still probably need to meet with yours.  Especially conservatives!
  • We're asking everyone to send a message like this one to the President this week.  Hundreds of people have.  This could go somewhere. 
 🙏👉 Will you please help us knock out our Gofundme or through the normal channels?  Needing to still raise ~$300 this week.  It's tight. 

Things are REALLY exploding on the Facebook group.  Adding hundreds of people per day. 


More soon.  Good things happening-

Score One for the Good Guys...sort of (Wall Street Journal)....

Hey Everyone! 
  • We've been waiting for this piece to come out for quite some time at the Wall Street Journal.
     
    Those our mostly our people mentioned in the article. Thanks to everyone who stepped up to be interviewed.
     
    Kind of disappointed in the piece itself, actually.
     
    The reporter purposely avoided mentioning the fact that older people now outnumber younger people with student loans, and that people over 50 now outnumber people under 25 with the debt. We specifically pointed these facts out to them.
  • The reporter also chose not to mention the fact that federal student loans have been uniquely stripped of statutes of limitations, which effectively makes the debt immortal, and totally explains why so many older people now are stuck with the loans.
  • I dunno.  They kind of made the borrowers look bad, like it was all their fault. 
     
    They also chose not to mention SLJ, when we went to significant lengths to facilitate the story, which is off-putting.
     
    But whatever. Thanks again to all who stepped up to be interviewed for this piece!
This is the battle, folks.  Your battle.  If you do nothing else this week to fight, please at least send a message like this to the President.  It will HELP. 
Sincerely,
Alan
ps.  Will you please pitch-in to our Gofundme or through the normal channels?  It is getting difficult on this end-

Group Action today: Send a message to the President!!

Picture
Hey Everyone-
Now is exactly the right time for us to send a message to the President.  Below is the message I sent.  Please say something like this.  IT WILL HELP. 
Do it now.  Don't let this drop! 
We are kicking ass right now. 
  • We're quoted extensively at the Daily Mail over the weekend, interviewed in this nation-wide broadcast last week. We're expecting several high profile interviews to be coming out over the next couple of weeks. 
  • We're meeting with members of Congress regularly (but we need to meet with yours in all likelihood).  
  • Please also repost this, this and this. 
  • Please chip-in to our Gofundme or the normal channels? We're 83% towards our goal-
THIS IS YOUR BATTLE!!!
Alan
=========  MESSAGE TO THE PRESIDENT=========
Mr. President,
I request that you return bankruptcy protections to student loans and compel the wealthiest colleges to pay for discharges.  
Annual bankruptcy discharges will be around $6 Billion.  Harvard's endowment will grow by over $6 Billion this year.  The wealthiest 50-100 universities can easily pay for this.
This has to happen, Mr. President.  The Founders called for uniform bankruptcy rights in the Constitution, ahead of the powers to raise an army, declare war, and ahead of every right in the Bill of Rights. 
-You can easily scrap Biden's "New Bankruptcy Process", and direct your Departments of Education and Justice to simply stop opposing borrowers in bankruptcy proceedings. 
-Your Congress can pass legislation like S.2598 (from the 2020-2022 Congressional session) in a bipartisan manner. 
You should get this done before the mid-terms. 
The colleges, lenders, and the Dept of Education must be put in check, Mr. President.  70% of all borrowers are Republican or Independent, and the "red" states are being hurt far worse than the "blue" states.   There simply is no stronger action you can take for helping the country in a way that aligns with conservative principles. 
Make this happen, Mr. President.  The nation is counting on you. 
Godspeed and God Bless-

We're interviewed at the Daily Mail today...

Hey All!
We're quoted extensively today at the Daily Mail in a piece about Yrefy and Charlie Kirk/TPUSA.  Really a shady company!
Hear this interview from Thursday at AM950 (Seattle, Chicago, Minneapolis).  Several other articles at major media outlets in the offing...
Things are really starting to click for us!!
👉👉 It would be REALLY GOOD if you could help us finally knock out our Gofundme at this time, or pitch-in through the normal channels.  Things are very, very tight right now for us...will you please just help?! Needing to raise $800 this coming week, which will be tough for us.  🙏🙏🙏
  • Today's Action:  Get us into a meeting with your House Rep.  The sooner the better...
This it your battle to fight, folks. We're doing everything possible on this end, but it comes down to you-
Sincerely,
Alan Collinge

Friday.  New Data. It's BAD...

Picture
Hey Everyone! 
The new Dept of Education student loan data is very bad!  (or maybe good depending on your outlook :-) )
Non-payment rates are getting significantly worse, even from last quarter...and defaults are exploding.  I expect this trend to continue.  The lending system is very much in catastrophic failure.
I get that everyone is stressing over their own loans.  But banging your head against the wall is not fighting...it helps no one, especially you!  We need you fighting.  Towards that end:
  • Please get us into a meeting with your House Representative.  We can do most/all of the talking if needed.
  • Repost this, this and this.
Finally, we are trying VERY hard to knock out our Gofundme, which keeps this group alive and fighting for you.  Will you PLEASE pitch something into it so we can finally knock it out?  We're 82% completed...so we're close.  Please help to push us over the finish line? Donating through the normal channels is great, too.  Please make this incredibly difficult fundraising a bit easier on us, folks.  
I'm glad to report that we're interviewed in a number of upcoming national, and international news stories.  Stay tuned.  Also, see these interview we did with Rad Futures, and also this "Semi-Quincentennial" interview we did with Cynthia Pooler. 
The Congressional meetings are going well, btw.  So much is happening right now.  We are really kicking butt! 
Please do your part.  We need you in this fight more than ever right now. 
WE GOT THIS.  STRENGTH IN NUMBERS.  YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!

Wednesday. Breaking Interview, Congressional Blitz!

Picture
Hey Everyone!
See this interview we just did with Rad Futures.  We're also interviewed today at AM950 (Minneapolis) and their affiliates in Seattle and Chicago at 4pm EST today.  Check it out!
We continue to meet with members of the House of Representatives.  Will you please get us a meeting with your House Rep?  It's literally the most helpful action you can take all year for SLJ!
Thanks to 888 people we are now 82% completed on our Gofundme.  Will you PLEASE push us over the top, or chip-in through the normal channels?  It will help tremendously!!
We are fighting very hard for you, folks.  Please step-up, and help.  Thanks to all those who already are!!
Best Regards,
Alan

The MOST important Project we have done...NEED YOUR HELP!

Good Monday All! 
We need to get into a meeting with your House Representative.  This is especially important if you live in a republican district, but it's important for all reps.  Only you can make this happen.  We can do all the talking if necessary, but it's up to you to do a "meeting request" at their website, and get the ball rolling. Will you please make it your mission to make this happen?  This is the most important project we have yet undertaken.
See this interview we did over the weekend with Cynthia Pooler.  Also, let us know  if you or someone you know had had dealings with YREFY, a new private student loan company that is running wild right now.
Finally:  we are now 82% completed with our Gofundme.  Will you PLEASE put us over the top so we can focus on fighting for you without all the distraction of having to fund raise all the time?  It would be  incredibly helpful!
Please also join your state chapter. If you think you might want to lead it, let me know!
This group has done VERY big things, Ladies and Gentlemen.  WE NEED TO DO THIS BIGGER THING NOW!!
Sincerely,
Alan
