Democrat Congressional Staffer Goes Viral After Thanking Biden for ‘Canceling’ His Student Debt
“Congratulations! The Biden-Harris Administration has forgiven your federal student loan(s) listed below with Nelnet in full.”
Isn’t it great how taxpayers are now paying off student loans for people who work for the government?
FOX News reports:
Democratic staffer goes viral for boasting about Biden canceling his student debt: ‘Why elections matter’
A House Democratic staff member was ripped for thanking President Biden after his student loan debt was canceled on Wednesday.
Ben Kamens, communications director for Ohio Rep. Marcy Kaptur, posted on his X account that he had been informed his student loan debt was officially canceled.
“Just got a call to let me know my student debt has been canceled. This is why elections matter. Thanks @JoeBiden,” Kamens wrote along with a photo of his notice.
The notice read, “Congratulations! The Biden-Harris Administration has forgiven your federal student loan(s) listed below with Nelnet in full.”
The debt total was $8,250 with the disbursement rate beginning in 2010.
According to LegiStorm, which publishes congressional staff salary data from Clerk of the House reports, Kamens made a little over $80,000 in 2023.
By contrast, the median household income in the 9th Congressional District Kaptur represents in northern Ohio is $62,077, according to census data.
Though Kamens cheered his student loan debt cancelation, Kaptur previously spoke out against Biden’s plan to cancel student loan debt back in 2022.
Joe Biden is robbing from hardworking plumbers, electricians, and mechanics to pay off the student loans from congressional staffers ahead of schedule.
This reflects so poorly on the Dems: https://t.co/GVOWl3iTJB

I hope Trump uses this as a campaign ad
Using tax money to buy votes is a long-standing tradition. In this case, it transfers wealth from blue-collar workers who didn’t get to go to college to white-collar workers who earn more.
Hey, Biden may be an extortionate thug, but as long as you get your cut, he’s your extortionate thug.
This is exactly what the Supreme Court told Biden he couldn’t do, but he did it anyway. Welcome to the post Constitutional presidency! Now Biden has the temerity to say that a Trump presidency is a threat to Democracy. Between ignoring the Supreme Court and opening our borders to third world criminal gangs Biden has already done what he can to destroy Democracy in this nation.
Why is this kid thanking Biden and Kamala? They are not paying off his loan. The loan money isn’t coming out of Joe;s pockets, it’s coming out of taxpayer’s pockets. Joe needs to use some of his ‘big guy’ money.
