Democrat Capitol Hill Communications Director Brags About Student Loan Forgiveness – Immediately Backfires
Democrat Rep. Mary Kaptur (OH-9)
Congresswoman Mary Kaptur’s (D-OH) communications director, Ben Kamens, took to X last night to brag about his student loans being paid. Kamens posted a photo of a letter stating,
“Congratulations! The Biden-Harris Administration has forgiven your federal student loan(s) listed below with Nelnet in full.”
The letter lists two loans totaling $8,250 from 2010 as the “forgiven” loans.
In July 2023, the United States Supreme Court struck down the “Biden-Harris Administrations” attempt to “forgive” student loans, or rather, to transfer that debt to everyone else via taxes. In Biden v. Nebraska, Chief Justice John Roberts opined in the 6-3 decision, “characterizing the decision as a straightforward interpretation of federal law,” according to SCOTUSblog.com:
Holding: The Secretary of Education does not have authority under the Higher Education Relief Opportunities for Students Act of 2003 to establish a student loan forgiveness program that will cancel roughly $430 billion in debt principal and affect nearly all borrowers.
