It is simply unacceptable that the Nation's total student loan debt has surpassed credit card debt in our country. Student loan debt can follow a person for life, making it more difficult to raise a family, start a business, buy a home, or save for retirement. That is why I introduced the Student Loan Repayment Assistance Act which will help college graduates more easily repay their student loan debts by incentivizing more employers to offer student loan repayment assistance. This bill will help alleviate the financial and emotional burden of a student loan debt, and help employers attract and retain skilled, qualified employees. It is a win-win for all. In Congress, I will continue to fight for a strong middle class where everyone can achieve the American Dream. ____________________
