SUMMARY:Payment Pause NOW: Media & Op-ed Training
DESCRIPTION:The federal student loan system is in shambles: as debtors are 
 being told they must leave SAVE\, they are being offered confusing and con
 tradictory information about what plan they should transfer to and how muc
 h it will cost them. Loan payments toward PSLF have been lost\, and the De
 partment of Education is understaffed. People are suffering.\n\nIt’s cle
 ar that we need a pause on payments NOW– to address the ongoing harm and
  to open up possibilities for debt cancellation going forward.\n\nHow can 
 we share and then utilize our individual debt experiences to demand that t
 his issue rises above the noise? How do we make our demands newsworthy and
  exciting to reporters and on social media?\n\nJoin Maddy and Kristin for 
 a storytelling workshop. We’ll discuss best practices in talking to the 
 media as well as how to complete and pitch op-eds for publication.
