Biden Clears Student Debt for 150,000

The Biden administration announced a new round of student loan forgiveness on Monday, extending relief to an additional 150,000 borrowers and bringing the total number of beneficiaries during Biden's term to over 5 million. The latest wave of debt relief targets three specific groups: 85,000 people who were defrauded by their educational institutions, 61,000 borrowers with permanent or total disabilities, and 6,100 public service workers.The total cost of student loan forgiveness under the Biden administration has now reached $183.6 billion. This record-breaking amount of relief was achieved through significant reforms to both the Borrower Defense program and the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program. The PSLF program alone has helped over 1 million borrowers during Biden's term, compared to just 7,000 before his administration.Education Secretary Miguel Cardona emphasized the administration's commitment to making the system more accountable to both students and taxpayers. Under Secretary of Education James Kvaal highlighted how the program has helped various groups, including public servants, disabled individuals, those defrauded by their colleges, and long-term borrowers who have made payments for decades.The announcement comes as the administration prepares for the transition to President-elect Trump, with officials noting that federal efforts on student loan relief are likely to slow down after the change in leadership. While the administration celebrated reaching this milestone of helping 5 million borrowers, officials declined to specify whether additional relief would be announced before Biden leaves office next week.The program represents a fulfillment of Biden's campaign promise to address issues in the student loan system, with Cardona noting that the achievement surpasses that of any previous administration in history.

Harris Snubs Vance Family At VP Mansion

When JD Vance, his wife Usha and their three young children move into the Naval Observatory residence on Jan. 20, it will be their first time inside the white Queen Anne-style mansion that has been home to vice presidents since the 1970s.Vice President Kamala Harris has not extended an invitation for a formal sit-down or tour, multiple Democratic and Republican sources told CBS News.In November, Usha Vance, via intermediaries, reached out to staff for the home's current occupants, Harris and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, seeking details including what they would need to childproof it. Ewan, Vivek and Mirabel Vance are all under the age of eight.The questions were initially rebuffed by a Harris political appointee. But there has since been communication between the Vance team and Navy aides who oversee the residence. Before Christmas, Navy officials provided an overview of the house to discuss the layout of the residence, logistics and practicalities of the move-in, and to help answer any questions the Vances had, a person familiar with the call said.Usha Vance spoke with Emhoff for about 40 minutes last week, sources said. Harris sources said that arrangements are underway to accommodate the Vance children.Spokespeople for Vance and Harris declined to comment. But people close to Harris say she was never afforded an opportunity to visit the home before she was sworn in in 2021. However, she took office during the COVID outbreak, just after the Capitol riot — and Donald Trump had refused to admit he had been defeated in the election.Advisers to then-Vice President Mike Pence dispute that an invitation was never offered. They say he quietly gave Harris and Emhoff a chance to visit in the waning days of the Trump administration. The invitation came discreetly because Trump resisted accommodating the incoming administration. No formal sit-down between Pence and Harris ever took place, Democratic and Republican sources said. People close to Harris defended her decision not to invite Vance to visit, a tradition that was broken during the Trump-Pence administration. Harris' team has been focused on an overseas trip that was canceled and on the California wildfires.In 2016, then-Vice President Biden and his wife Jill hosted the Pences at the Northwest Washington residence not long after the election.
