For a #WeekendRead consider my examination of how Senator Warren is wielding soft power to push for universal child care and cancelling student debt (you'll probably come away more informed than after Bad Art Friend!) https://t.co/zHY647L5pi via @19thnews — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Warren has long warned that “too-big-to-fail” federal student loan giants repeatedly cheat borrowers, leaving them with mountains of crushing debt. An inside look at how she's pressuring the Biden administration to #CancelStudentDebt: https://t.co/zHY647L5pi via @19thnews — PolitiTweet.org

The new battlefront in the partisan war over voting? Ballot initiatives. GOP-led states are trying to make it harder to use them; progressives are pushing back. https://t.co/HOuKMAirXf via @19thnews — PolitiTweet.org

At least 87 measures that have been intro'd this year that would make passing ballot measures more difficult — 20 have passed. Liberal groups say it is a direct response to recent victories in GOP-led states on issues like Medicaid expansion. https://t.co/HOuKMAirXf via @19thnews — PolitiTweet.org

Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker

The Ed Dept said this week it will overhaul its student loan forgiveness program. The role Warren played pressuring PHEAA, which runs part of the program but is exiting the federal loan biz, is just one way she is pushing to #CancelStudentDebt https://t.co/zHY647L5pi @19thnews — PolitiTweet.org

This school year, districts in UT, OR, MO & FL have banned Pride flags as a political symbol & ordered teachers to remove them from their classrooms — removing them could have dire mental health effects on LGBTQ+ students https://t.co/7CSaHKYdoD via @19thnews @i_oriion — PolitiTweet.org

South Dakota’s GOP-led legislature approved a resolution that will be on 2022 primary ballots that would set a 60 percent threshold for ballot initiatives. In the general several months later, Medicaid expansion will be on the ballot. https://t.co/HOuKMAirXf via @19thnews — PolitiTweet.org
