Ocasio-Cortez And Biden FIGHT Over Student Debt
Things are getting heated!
As you may already know, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez along with a handful of other Democrats are now calling on President Biden to wipe away billions upon billions of dollars worth of student loan debt for people across America.
Ocasio-Cortez has suggested numerous times that Biden can save millions of Americans from having to pay off student debt with the stroke of a pen.
Some critics however have warned Ocasio-Cortez that wiping away student loan debt would benefit none other than the super wealthy and AOC is furious about those claims.
Recently, President Biden himself claims to believe that wiping away student debt would only benefit the super wealthy such as parent of children “who have gone to Harvard and Yale and Penn.”
Biden doesn’t think that students who attend elite schools should have their debt forgiven.

Well, apparently that didn’t sit well with Ocasio-Cortez who called the claims ridiculous.
According to Fox, AOC stated, “I’m greatly looking forward to the Biden administration canceling student loan debt and no longer advancing the false narratives that student loan debt is for the privileged. What a ridiculous assertion. Do we really think that a billionaire’s child is taking student loans?“
