I recall plans being unveiled for $40k in student loan relief around this time 4 years ago as well. That didn’t happen, the concession is blocked by court order, and now I’m being told to vOtE again just one more time.

Just like how vOtInG was supposed to codify Roe v Wade, bring in police reform, correct the trillions of dollars handed out on PPP fraud, bring us Medicare for all… damn you know what I’ve been being told to vOtE these problems away for decades now.

Why don’t Dems push policy through during one of the many majorities they’ve enjoyed in the last 60 years?
