Democrats hope student loan relief may prove to be a winning issue for President Biden in November after he canceled billions in debt despite his loss at the Supreme Court last summer.
The White House has touted the president as canceling more student loans than any other administration in history, but Biden has still failed to live up to his 2020 campaign promise in 2020 of universal debt forgiveness.
Allies say voters will see Biden’s historic efforts in loan cancellation and be understanding of the failed $10,000 in relief for every borrower due to the conservative-learning Supreme Court, which holds three justices former President Trump appointed.
“I think [student loans] are probably one of the more impactful and consequential issues for those who may have went to college to pursue a higher education.” said Antjuan Seawright, a Democratic strategist.
