The centrist revolt against Biden’s student debt plan

While some Democrats in tough races, such as Sen. MARK KELLY (D-Ariz.), embraced the Biden plan, there was a backlash from many others:

Sen. CATHERINE CORTEZ MASTO (D-Ariz.): “I don’t agree with today’s executive action because it doesn’t address the root problems that make college unaffordable. We should be focusing on passing my legislation to expand Pell Grants for lower income students, target loan forgiveness to those in need, and actually make college more affordable for working families.”

Rep. JARED GOLDEN (D-Maine): “This decision by the president is out of touch with what the majority of the American people want from the White House, which is leadership to address the most immediate challenges the country is facing.”…

Rep. SHARICE DAVIDS (D-Kan.): “It’s not how I would have addressed the issue.”
