(823 posts)I have been saying this for a bit now. If Biden does not move on student loan debt, a relief he can effect now, we will lose even more seats in the house and senate. In March 2022 student loans come due again and those who are being more selective about where and how they work (and tend to vote democratic) will be forced back into the low wage, low hours, multiple jobs market place and will absolutely blame the democratic party...and rightfully so. We can say "but the republicans are standing in the way" all we want, but the truth is it was democrats who stood in the way. Tell me why independents should vote for a party that cannot get it's own agenda passed? "It's the economy, stupid" won us a presidency once, and will lose us the majority if we as a party don't fix this shit. Biden needs to act before the midterms.
