AOC Says Her School Debt Will Not Be Included Among the 30 Million Americans Who Will Benefit from Debt Relief

EXCERPT:

OCASIO-CORTEZ: "No, I don't think I will be. Actually, I’m going to be one of the few that doesn’t. I’m a member of Congress. I’m a little bit outside the threshold and bounds. But if I wasn’t, you know, just a few years ago, waitress me five years ago would have benefited from it. Congresswoman me will not, but that’s okay. I’ll take the knock if it means that people can get relief. You know, this is huge. People getting student loan forgiveness, their student loans canceled, it means that, you know, it’s hope to buy a house or have a kid or travel abroad or maybe even go back to school and pursue a career that maybe they otherwise wouldn’t have.”
