5/25/2024 Saturday: Tucker CarlsonHappy Saturday Everyone:
We're a non-partisan group, but we are partisan-aware, and the fact of the matter is that Republicans are solidly against us right now, and they absolutely should not be. They should be ON OUR SIDE!! We believe we can change that with today's action: We're hitting Tucker Carlson and need you helping us do this. I estimate that if we can get a few thousand people to do ^^this^^, we'll have a shot with him. He has, surprisingly, done excellent stuff on the student loan issue in the past, and we've also had a surprisingly good audience with Fox News on multiple occasions. Whatever your political stripes might be, will you PLEASE STEP AND DO THIS? We have a massive muscle to flex...the largest in the country. We need to flex it or be buried by this loan scam. It really is coming down to that, folks. YOUR ACTIONS MEAN EVERYTHING TO MAKING THIS HAPPEN. ➡️➡️ Finally, Ladies and Gentlemen, I have to ask: We need 24 people to donate $10 or more at this time to meet critical operating expenses. This group will cease to exist without your nominal support. Will you please help? http://www.studentloanjustice.org/donate.html I know most of you don't know me. So you know: I'm 54 years old. I've spent nearly my entire adult life fighting for student loan justice, at a massive personal cost. I live in what was a decades-long-abandoned building in the woods in North Wisconsin which has no working plumbing, a badly leaking roof, and many other deficiencies, particularly during the coldest winter months. I have no healthcare, no retirement savings, don't take welfare or any other public assistance, and struggle constantly to even pay the phone/utilities/internet/email/website bills every month. Nonetheless, I fight. Every day for the past twenty years. For you. For Student Loan Justice. Because our group refuses to do deals with bad people, won’t sell our members out to the student loan industry, or do other bad things for money that would corrupt our mission, it has been, is now, and probably will be very financially difficult for us to operate for the foreseeable future. Make no mistake: But for this group, our decades-long efforts, our petition, and so much else, student loan cancellation by executive order would have never become a national issue. But for this group we would not have seen- and will not see- meaningful bankruptcy legislation in Congress. Do you not know this? Please just google this group and go back 20 years to see for yourself. I actually feel privileged to be fighting for this very necessary and noble cause.Our group has, in fact, led the national, public discourse on student loans for the past 20 years, but particularly in recent years, and that is remarkable, given the hurdles we’ve faced. I don’t complain, but a little help to ensure that this group, all that we've achieved- and all that we are poised to accomplish- doesn't disappear from existence for lack of the nominal funding we need to continue is of paramount importance to me. A little support from the members towards that end doesn't strike me as expecting too much. The other groups in this space have all made deals with the student loan industry that guarantees they will never actually solve this problem, but rather will only perpetuate it and exploit it. This has become a very big fight. We can and MUST win this. It really is up to us! So Please…Will You Just Help? We have a HUGE CHALLENGE ahead with this fight, and with the presidential campaign. You'll be glad you did! Thanks, and Best Regards- Alan

5/24/2024 Special Action: Tucker CarlsonGood Friday All-
We’re making a concerted effort to get through to conservative Tucker Carlson, who has (surprisingly) done good stuff on the student loan issue in the past.
Sincerely, Alan Happy Thursday Everyone-
As if on cue, the Biden Administration announced another, $7.7 Billion batch of loan cancellations yesterday. But $8 billion in INTEREST is added onto our backs in interest every month. So Biden could do this forever, and the nation’s loan balance will still grow! We have to fight way, way harder, folks. Today’s action:
Great thanks to Andrew, Sara, Jack, Cynthia, Seth, Robert, Kathryn, Candis, Susan, Misty, Nick, Laurie, Lisa and everyone who has been donating lately! If we can get 109 people to commit to monthly, recurring donations of $20 (or the equivalent), all of this fundraising madness goes away. We’ve picked up around 15 of these in the past week, so that bodes well. Have a Great Day! -Alan  Everyone:
Today’s action is quick:
Great thanks to Susan, Misty, Nick, Laurie, Lisa, Jerome, Doug, Lynn, Chris, Laura and everyone who has been donating lately! Have a Great Day! -Alan  Hey Folks-
We just published this: Everything you THINK you know about student loans is wrong! This is a humorous, easy to read, fun thing that I am hoping very much will go viral. It will change everything if it does! Hopefully YOU actually know most of these things, but almost everyone else does not! Also, See Sunday’s live stream, where I take you through all of this and more regarding the presidential campaign- ➡️ Will you please consider a donation at this time? We missed our critical target last week by $60, had our website briefly taken down as a result, and will have to raise nearly $800 this week. I’m doing the best I can on this shoestring budget, folks…but honestly we are really scrambling right now. Yikes. Will you not help make this fundraising a bit easier on us?! 🙏🙏 http://www.studentloanjustice.org/donate.html Thanks to Lisa, Jerome, Doug, Lynn, Chris, Laura, Diamond, Eduardo, and everyone who has been donating lately! I cannot tell you how important and appreciated your support has been. If we can get 115 people to commit to monthly, recurring donations of $20 or more (or the equivalent), all of this fundraising madness goes away. We’ve picked up around 10 of these in the past week, so that bodes well. Please let’s make this a Strong Week! -Alan 5/20/2024 Special Article: Plz Help With This!Hey Folks-
We just published this: Everything you THINK you know about student loans is wrong! Hopefully YOU actually know most of these things, but almost everyone else does not! Please share it broadly, and clap for it many times. Also, See last night’s live stream, where I take you through all of this and more- ➡️ And please…donate if you can? We missed our critical target last week by $60 (with bills due today), and will have to raise nearly $800 this coming week. I’m doing the best I can on this shoestring budget, folks…but we are still floundering. Yikes. Will you not help make this fundraising a bit easier on us?! 🙏🙏 Thanks to all who have been donating lately…I cannot tell you how important and appreciated your support has been- Please let’s make this a Strong Week! -Alan 5/19/2024 Sunday. Important Livestream Tonight!Hey Everyone-
We need 12 people to donate $10 or more today for this weeks expenses. Will you please help & make this fund raising a bit easier on us? ➡️➡️ http://www.studentloanjustice.org/donate.html I'll be doing a special Livestream tonight @6pm EST on our X channel to discuss our next actions, and also the presidential campaign. Time to light a fire under this election season! Today's quick action: We are the largest muscle in the country in the student loan battle when you help us flex it. PLEASE DO YOUR PART! We Got This. -Alan 5/18/2024 Saturday Battle!Hey Everyone-
See today’s quick live stream. The opposition is out in force, spinning lies and more lies, which I point out in today’s action: ➡️ We’re needing 8 people to donate $20 or more this week. Will you please help? http://www.studentloanjustice.org/donate.html Sorry I have to ask. Great thanks to Lara, Mark, Rhonda, Sophia, Angela, Garrett, April, Jen, Ricardo, Jorge, Dori, Jerome, Dori, Lisa, Patrick, Mark, Althea, Dennis, Rose Marie, Alric, Jeannie, Tylean, Frank, Carrie and Donald for their donations, which included several recurring donations, which are exceptionally helpful!! 🙏🙏 Have a Great Weekend, All- -Alan 5/17/2024 Friday. Some Good News-Hey Everyone-
I’m glad to report that 7 people have signed up for recurring donations over the past week. If we can get 150 people to commit to a $10-$20 monthly, recurring donation from now until the election, we’ll be able to focus on the fight! Will you please consider it? ➡️ http://www.studentloanjustice.org/donate.html This week, we still need 12 people to donate $20 or more. I’m also happy to report that our contacts in the Senate tell us that the very dangerous legislation that was in the FAA Re-Authorization bill (S.1939) was taken out of the bill at the 11th hour last week, and was not included when the bill was passed. The official, passed version of the bill has not been made publicly available yet, but our sources are credible. That’s a rare bit of good news! Thanks to everyone who helped us cause the public outcry that stopped this dangerous trick. Today’s action is quick: Hear this interview I did last week for Pacifica Radio in Texas. Also this recent call we got onto C-SPAN. Everyone should be getting a call into C-SPAN once per month! I hope you understand the significance of this group and our fight. Sincerely, Alan 5/16/2024 Some GOOD NEWS!!Hey Everyone-
I’m happy to report that our contacts in the Senate tell us that the very dangerous legislation that was in the FAA Re-Authorization bill (S.1939) was taken out of the bill at the 11th hour last week. So that’s a rare bit of good news. Thanks to everyone who helped us cause the public outcry that made this happen for us! Today’s action is quick: ➡️ We are asking everyone to please donate $20 or more at this time to fund our operations this week. It would be exceptionally helpful if we could get 150-200 people to commit to making it a monthly, recurring donation through the election. This would take a massive amount of fundraising pressure off of us. Will you please help? http://www.studentloanjustice.org/donate.html Hear this interview I did last week for Pacifica Radio in Texas. Also this recent call we got onto C-SPAN. Everyone should be getting a call into C-SPAN once per month! I truly hope the significance of this group and our fight is not lost on you. We really need you in this battle right now!
