Hey All-
Thanks for signing the petition. Today, we are asking everyone to take these two quick actions:
1. Retweet this, and follow us on Twitter.
2. Contact the White House, and say something like this:
Mr. President,
Before the election, you said you would "eliminate" student loans for people who attended public colleges or HBCU's and made less than $125,000. You also endorsed Sen. Warren's bankruptcy agenda, which included a Day One executive order directing the Department of Education to stop opposing student loan borrowers in bankruptcy court. It is now almost your 100th day, and you have done NEITHER of these things. You never even mentioned student loans in your very first address to Congress
Do the right thing. Cancel ALL federally owned student loans, return bankruptcy protections, and replace this catastrophically failed, nationally threatening lending system with something that works for the 45 Million voters and their families who expect you to solve this problem for the country, not insiders in Washington DC.

We've done two shows in the past week with the Daily KOS, and All Exits Closed. Both turned out very strong. We also have several local and one national news story that should be airing in the next week or so.
...BUT...
We need more media coverage...badly! You can help tremendously by contacting your local media and telling them to report on this See last night's livestream if you need encouragement-
This all comes down to YOUR ACTION, YOUR AGENCY. Don't forget that. Let us know about your achievments! We love to tell the group about successes that people are having in this fight!
Best Regards-
