Rep. Langworthy Rails Against Biden's Student Loan Forgiveness Plan on the House Floor
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congressman Nick Langworthy (NY-23) recently took to the House floor to rail against President Biden's new $1.2 billion student loan redistribution scam.
"Mr. Speaker, President Biden recently announced another $1.2 billion in inflationary student loan forgiveness, further pursuing a reckless policy that only incentivizes universities to continue to raise costs.
What's particularly troubling is that this burden is being shifted onto the shoulders of hardworking Americans who may not have had the opportunity to pursue higher education or have consciously opted against it.
This policy only adds more financial burden to families as Americans already struggle to keep up with the staggering cost of inflation. Instead of offering meaningful relief, it adds yet another layer of economic hardship, further challenging the financial stability of countless households across the nation.
It’s simple: if you take out a loan for your education, you commit to paying it back. Biden’s student loan redistribution scam is a slap in the face to every American who built their career without attending college or attending a trade school and those who worked to pay off their student loan debt.
As representatives of the American people, it is our duty to advocate for policies that help our economy and allow individuals to pursue the American dream, not ones that perpetuate dependency and fiscal irresponsibility.
Mr. President, abandon this misguided approach and work with House Republicans toward solutions that promote genuine opportunity and prosperity for all Americans, regardless of their educational background."
