Take the Quick Thursday Action

Hey All-
Much is happening right now. See last night's live stream. Today's action:

Retweet this, this, and this.
Get your local media to report on our bill, our petition. We have people in your community willing to be interviewed. Give them our contact info ([email protected], (202) 594-1120).

SGood news: We heard from Congress that our legislation in the House is on track to be introduced and debated this month. . Also, there has been a groundswell of opinion pieces in the past two weeks from conservatives calling for the return of bankruptcy to student loans. Here are a few:
1.  The Federalist (Richard McCarty):
2.  The Federalist (Joe Popularis):
3.  Politico (Oren Cass):
4.  Philly Inquirer (Kyle Sammin)

This is your battle.

P.S. Will you please donate at this time? We still need 18 people to donate $20 (or the equivalent) this week.

Wednesday Action...Important!

Hey All-
Today's action:

Retweet this, this, and this.
Call both of your Senators, tell them to cosponsor/support S.2598

We'll be on WRTV this evening in Indiana. It would be exceptionally helpful at this time if you would contact a few local news organizations, and tell them to report on student loans/our bill. These local stories can be very strong!
This is your battle. It feels good to fight it-

Sunday Action

Hey Everyone-
Glad to report that Elizabeth Warren has picked up on our push on the Attorney General, so that bodes well. This week, Congress is back in session (starting Tuesday), so we'll need a huge amount of effort from everyone to get S.2598 through. To that end:

Join your state chapter group.

Friday Action

Everyone-
A small but significant "win" in the ongoing battle.
I'm glad to report that our action two weeks ago to compel Attorney General Garland has gained momentum. Senator Elizabeth Warren is now joining us in our call on Garland to stop delaying the Department of Education's commitment to stop opposing student loan borrowers in bankruptcy court. Hopefully more to come on this soon...
Today's Action:

Take This Poll about Biden's Student Loan Cancellation

This truly is your battle. We have over a million people on our petition, on our various platforms, etc. If everyone did that past two weeks worth of the daily actions, we'd be done...victorious...think about that.
*** Interview Request ***
I'm a reporter for States Newsroom working on a story about how the Biden administration's announcement on student debt cancellation will affect the financial decisions of borrowers. I'm particularly interested in speaking with people who never graduated with a degree, attended a community college, or attended a for-profit college, but I'd be grateful to speak with anyone willing to share how this may affect them, whether it's how much they spend on groceries, moving into a new home, or how they think about other kinds of debt they're carrying. I realize that for many people, this won't be enough for them to make a meaningful change in their finances, and I can speak to you about that issue as well. If you wish to talk with me for this piece, please reach out at [email protected]. My actual full name is Casey Quinlan

Monday, August 29th

Everyone-
I hope you caught our interview Saturday on Fox News. We hope to be doing more of these. Our opposition is going ballistic right now. We have to shut them down.
I hope you all are pleased and appreciate that we started the public conversation on the concept of student loan cancellation by executive order, and that we've gotten to this point with President Biden. However, there is very good reason to be skeptical and wary of his cancellation pledge in the continued absence of bankruptcy rights.
More than ever, we need to fight for S.2598 in the month of September, before early voting begins in October. We're doing our best over here on this end, but we need your help.
To that end...Today's Action:

Retweet this, this, this, and this.
Do This Action
Call both of your Senators today.

This truly is your battle. The month of September could be it for us.
PLEASE MAKE THIS WEEK COUNT.
-Alan.
ps. Please donate. We need 34 people to donate $20 (or the equivalent) this week.
