But placing the burden of our nation’s outstanding student loan debt on taxpayers is both irresponsible and unaffordable as we continue to grapple with already record-high inflation. The Penn-Wharton Budget Model estimates this cancellation will cost taxpayers $300 billion, and those in the top 60 percent income bracket will see the largest share of the benefit. Broad student loan debt cancellation does nothing to address the underlying issue of the exorbitant costs of tuition, which will only balloon even further.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T02:59:24Z |
