UMM WHAT? Rep. Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts Says ‘Student Debt Is Policy Violence’

Joe Biden has announced that the extension on not making student loan payments is ending in February.

This is a pet issue for progressives who wanted Biden to forgive all student debt.

They are not happy that he is not doing their bidding on this and MA Democrat Ayanna Pressley is even calling student debt “policy violence” whatever that means.

‘Squad’ member Rep. Pressley claims student debt is ‘violence’

There’s a new form of violence in Democrats’ vocabulary.

Democratic Rep. Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts took to social media to push President Biden to universally cancel student debt for U.S. college students and graduates. Reporting on her own canvassing efforts, Pressley said allowing student debt to continue was a form of violence.

“Let’s make it plain: student debt is policy violence,” Pressley wrote. “We’ll keep fighting to relieve families across the country, to make sure our policies & budgets reflect their lived experiences & that we build this grassroots movement to #CancelStudentDebt together.”

Pressley, a member of the far-left “Squad,” explained that her team was involved in what she called “deep canvasing” – speaking with local constituents about student debt cancellation and their financial security.

“By ‘deep canvassing,’ we engaged voters across the district in longer, one-on-one conversations about student debt cancellation, discussed how canceling student debt would impact their lives, and introduced new perspectives by sharing stories & lived experiences.”

Today, over 43 million people in the U.S. are crushed under more than $1.7 trillion in student loan debt.

This fall, the A-Team led our first ever deep canvassing efforts w/our neighbors across the #MA7 to hear how this crisis impacts our communities. This is what we learned🧵

What is she even talking about? Student debt is taken on voluntarily.
