on Klain's remarks, Congresswoman Marie Newman said Saturday that"pausing student loan payments during Covid has allowed Americans to get by."
Rep. Jesús"Chuy" García and Rep. Ayanna Pressley also pressured the president to take action on the issue Saturday: Also on Friday, the Debt Collective announced a nationally coordinated refusal to make payments if Biden refuses to step in before they resume in May. Debt Collective spokesperson Braxton Brewington emphasized that"we want to be clear—a student debt strike is not intentionally defaulting on your loans, but politicizing and collectivizing your refusal to pay by using the tools the Department of Education already provides to student borrowers."
