instead of crying on twitter and other message boards?

Are there at least 5 senators who support this? Or 20 congresspersons?

It is an issue generated to get college students' votes and I doubt there is any public support for it.

If I had a large student debt that I wanted cancelled, I'd be on twitter too!!
