One of the biggest campaign promises Joe Biden made during the campaign was that he would eliminate student debt. He worded it in different ways, calling it “student loan forgiveness” or “collegiate debt deferment” but at the end of the day it was understood that those who owe a lot of money for their education wouldn’t have to pay it off if Biden got elected.
Now that Joe is in the Oval Office.......it will not happen. Biden will not include student loan forgiveness in his upcoming Budget, after pledging to cancel $10,000 from loans on the campaign trail.
In an interview with the New York Times Friday, Biden said he had grown ‘suspicious’ of canceling the debt.
‘The idea that you go to Penn and you’re paying a total of 70,000 bucks a year and the public should pay for that? I don’t agree,’ Biden told the Times.
