After a failed FAFSA rollout, time is running out for an entire nation’s worth of high-school seniors to access financial aid. The effect on college attendance threatens to be worse than the coronavirus pandemic was. @TheAtlantic

Important view here from the Boston Globe, adding momentum to the national movement to ensure students in financial need don't get jammed by May 1 enrollment-decision deadlines as a result of FAFSA delays. Flexibility matters.

Rather than working to protect kids, @HouseGOP wants to ban them from playing sports.
HR 734 is a harmful, hateful bill that is part of a larger, sinister campaign attacking trans kids for political points. It's shameful and wrong and must not be allowed to become law.

In keeping with my campaign promise, my Administration is announcing a plan to give working and middle class families breathing room as they prepare to resume federal student loan payments in January 2023.
I'll have more details this afternoon.
ALT The Biden Administration's Student Loan Debt Plan: Forgiving debt: $20,000 if you went to college on Pell Grants $10,000 if you didn't receive Pell Grants Forgiveness only applies to those earling less than $125,000 Student loan pause extended one final time through Dec 31, 2022 Payment based on income: If you have undergraduate loans, you can cap repayment at 5% of your monthly income.

This is a testament to the impact you can have on students when you meet them where they are and allow them to express themselves freely however they'd like, as long as they aren't harming anyone. Kids, just like anyone else, learn, grow, etc best when comfortable & accepted

There’s power in two, and not just on Twosday, 2-22-22! Great things happen when our students receive steady, nurturing, one-on-one attention of caring adults – whether it’s their Crusade advisor, instructor at one of our program partners, or alumni lifting others as they climb.
