Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison is joining with other state attorneys general in calling for President Biden to cancel all federal student loan debt. Ellison and attorneys general from New York, Hawaii, Illinois, Michigan, New Mexico, Washington, and Puerto Rico sent a joint letter to Biden Monday, urging him to erase all federal student loan debt through an executive order. The letter points to benefits to the borrowers and the impact the action would have on racial and economic justice initiatives. That request follows comments by Biden that he would be taking “a hard look” at taking executive action.
