POV: You believe health care should be a right, not a privilege, in America.
Before @POTUS and I came into office, only 7,000 borrowers had received student debt relief through Public Service Loan Forgiveness. We made it easier for teachers, firefighters, and others to have their debt forgiven — and as of today, 870,000 public servants have benefitted.
