Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : The Department of Education's justification relies on an inapplicable, 20-year-old law: The HEROES Act, which was intended as aid to veterans and their families, allows government to modify student loans during times of war or national emergency.
44% : Whatever the motives of the president for transferring massive amounts of student debt to taxpayers in a rushed, haphazard manner, it certainly seems like an election year ploy.
42% : Heavy criticism has abounded over the plan not merely due to its constitutionality, but because those who have made student loan payments or did not go to college receive no benefit.
31% : On Tuesday, the Pacific Legal Foundation (PLF) filed the first lawsuit against President Joe Biden's so-called student loan "forgiveness" plan that seeks to "cancel" student loan debts of $10,000, and even up to $20,000 for some.
27% : In August 2022, President Biden announced his plan to cancel up to $20,000 in student loan debt per person for more than 40 million Americans.
