Take a loan, pay it back: no loan forgiveness

Student Financial Aid: Support lowering interest on student loans and/or forgiving them?

Tim Sheehy (R): No. Supported the Supreme Court's decision striking down Biden's proposal to forgive some student loan debts: "Take a loan, pay it back." No position found on interest rates.

Jon Tester (D): Mixed. Voted against Biden's student loan forgiveness plan. Taxpayers shouldn't have to "cover the tab." In 2013 voted to lower student loan interest rates.

It's important to have more choice in our education system

Parents must be at the forefront of their child's education, and it's important that we have more choice in our education system. We need to get politics out of the classroom and end the woke social agenda infecting our schools. Let's focus on the fundamentals of reading, writing, and arithmetic. And above all, we need leaders in Washington to stop things like drag queen story time from replacing the Lord's Prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance in our classrooms.
