Extreme right-wing judges continue to cause chaos by shutting down Biden’s SAVE repayment plan, thrusting millions of student debtors into crisis. The only solution to ease confusion and protect borrowers’ financial well-being is to pause all federal student loan payments. The latest court ruling on the SAVE plan not only allows for a pause, it also allows the pause to count towards PSLF and Income Driven Repayment.

Biden’s “on-ramp” is set to expire in October, just a month before the upcoming election. Biden should not sabotage Vice President Harris’s election chances by restarting payments and thrusting millions of families into financial crisis right before the election. It’s time for Biden to have Harris’s back the way she has always had his. And it’s time for Biden to show debtors he has their back. Biden must issue an interest-free student loan payment pause that covers all federal student loan borrowers.

Pause the damn debt.

The Supreme Court killed student debt cancellation so that MOHELA could make maximum profits off your student debt. MOHELA screws up your accounts and destroys your financial life. There are many things you can do with others to stop MOHELA and to force the Department of Education to end it’s contract with MOHELA once and for all. Join this list and let’s get organized.

It’s no secret that the U.S. healthcare system is a disaster. Corporate healthcare executives are raking in record profits while the rest of us have to pinch pennies just to see a doctor when we’re sick. Medical debt doesn’t exist in a vacuum – it’s a symptom of a healthcare system that incentivizes the pursuit of profit at the expense of patients, workers, and communities.

Healthcare should be a public good, not a commodity. We’re fighting to get debtors the immediate relief we need and building campaigns to demand systemic change and win universal healthcare for all. But to win, we’re going to need an even bigger movement. Filling out this form lets us know you’re down to be part of it!

Join the fight against America’s predatory healthcare system! Medical debt does not exist in a vacuum and we refuse to sit back and allow this system to exploit us in our times of need. Healthcare should be a public good, not a commodity.

Si en algún momento usted le ha debido renta atrasada a su arrendador, ¡está en el lugar correcto! Y ¡no está solo!

Nota: hacemos varias preguntas sobre raza, género y sexualidad porque a menudo los más marginados entre nosotros somos los más afectados por cosas como la deuda de renta. Contestar a estas preguntas nos ayuda a entender quién está afectado y cómo, y nos ayuda a identificar el prejuicio y la discriminación.
