SEND A MESSAGE TO THE PRESIDENT.  DO IT TODAY!

Ladies and Gentlemen-

Send a message like this to the President. Do it Today. Right now.  It will help. Everyone is doing it.  This one is particularly important.
  
https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/

======================================
Mr. President,
You need to return bankruptcy protections to federal student loans before the mid-terms. This is urgent.
  • Scrap the "New Bankruptcy Process" initiated by your predecessor.
  • Instruct your Departments of Education/Justice to stop opposing student loan borrowers in bankruptcy proceedings.
  • Tell your Congress to repeal 11 USC 523(a) 8
  • Call for a 0.1% endowment tax on the wealthiest colleges (with endowments exceeding $1 Billion) to cover the $6 Billion annual cost of this.
The federal student loan program is in catastrophic failure, Mr. President. 37 million citizens- 85% of all borrowers- are hopelessly underwater on their loans. 70% are either republican or independent. This includes around 14% of the adult, GOP voting base.
While none of these people want to file bankruptcy (and few ultimately will)), all of them feel the predatory weight of this unconstitutional lending program on their shoulders.
You know well the importance of uniform bankruptcy rights, Mr. President. It is an essential pillar of our country. The Founders called for uniform bankruptcy laws at the front of the Constitution for a very good reason.
This is it. This predatory, hyper-inflationary, nationall threatening loan regime is precisely what the Founders want to avoid.
You need an October Surprise Mr. President. This is it. There is no other action you can take in line with your principles that will bring more votes your way. 70% of Massie's constituents are strongly for this. So is Ron DeSantis, and more prominent conservatives than I can mention here.
If you fail to act, the GOP will, frankly, be annihilated.
Please do the right thing. This is your legacy.
Good Luck and Godspeed-

Last push on the Republicans...

Picture
Ladies and Gentlemen-
We're needing to raise $600 this week.  If 30 people kick in $20, we'll be there...If 60 people commit to the $10/month thing, we'll be there. Will you please help? Zero in yesterday...yikes!
 
See Sunday's livestream. It appears that the Dept of Education is under-reportingthe growth of the federal student loan portfolio.
See this interview of Anthony Fiorentino at Rad Futues.  Tony is an attorney working on a class action lawsuit...
Please repost this, this and this. This is our last push on the Republicans before the mid-terms. 
Please send that email to the Chief of Staff of your Senators and House Rep.
 I know a lot of people are feeling despondent right now.  It feels good to fight this fight.  And it helps.  Tremendously.   Please do your part. We need you.

Please let's make this week count.

Will you commit to SLJ?

Picture
​​Ladies and Gentlemen-
This is important.  I want squash this.
We are asking that 300 people commit to donating $10/month as a recurring donation.
There are tens of thousands of people getting this email.
As all of you saw over this past year with our Gofundme, it was painful, slow, and took up far, far FAR more of our time and energy that it should have.  If even 300 people made this commitment for a year, ALL OF OUR FUNDRAISING PROBLEMS WOULD DISAPPEAR.  Will you please make this commitment?

Do you not see how much more effective we will be if you choose to do this today? 
I honestly don't think I can take another year of constantly worrying about fund raising like we did last year, folks. I've proved my mettle.  I've busted my ass, fighting for you, at great cost, risk, sacrifice and trouble- and to great effect- for over two decades now.  Without making any deals with the bad guys who have corrupted nearly every other group. I should not have to be relegated to begging for the nickels and dimes I need to do this important work.  FOR YOU.  A lot is riding on the success of this group.  I truly, truly hope you see that you need step up, do your part, and keep it alive and in this battle, full force.


  • We just published this article. It now appears strongly that the Department of Education is not reporting the true size of their portfolio. Over the past year, the portfolio should have grown by approximately $125 Billion, but the Department of Education says it only grew by only $57 Billion. This is a massive disparity that cannot be rationally explained. Congress needs to ask the Department of Education to explain this huge disparity. It has been ongoing for many years. Please give this a read, a like and a share.
  • Please send that email to the Chief of Staff of your Senators and House Rep.
  • Please repost this.
Good callwe got onto C-SPAN this weekend with Terry Schilling, a pretty central guy with the GOP/Conservatives.  You'd be doing a hugely valuable public service to get a similar call on one morning this week-
Let's make this the strongest week ever for SLJ...
AND PLEASE COMMIT TO A MONTHLY.  IT WILL DRASTICALLY IMPROVE OUR EFFECTIVENESS. 

Sincerely, 
-Alan Collinge

New Data:  Is the Dept of Education fudging its numbers?

Hey Everyone-
We just published this article. It now appears strongly that the Department of Education is not reporting the true size of their portfolio. Over the past year, the portfolio should have grown by approximately $125 Billion, but the Department of Education says it only grew by only $57 Billion.

Please give this a read, a like and a share.
  • Will you please pitch something in through the normal channels at this time? FINALLY, we were able to complete our Gofundme. but it took nearly 13 months to finally finish. I can only imagine how much more we would have accomplished if we didn't have to spend all that time, energy and effort on fundraising. I will likely restart a new fundraiser shortly- I kind of have to, unless 150 people sign up for a $20 monthly, recurring donation. Or if 300 people do a $10 monthly recurring, etc. Will you please give this serious consideration? It would be so absolutely helpful. In any event, THANKS to everyone who pitched in during this past, most difficult year for us- Will you please join them?

Monday. We need you contacting Chiefs of Staff of your Senators/House Rep Today.

Picture
Good Morning-
Will you please send that email to the Chiefs of Staff of your Senators and House Reps?  Will you do it today?  This is extremely important at this time.  If we are going to see any sort of student loan related "October Surprise" from the Republicans before the midterms, this is our last chance to make that happen. 
I estimate that around 500 people have done this, which is a little more than one per House Rep. This is not enough.  We need you to take this action.
A lot is riding on this.  Whether or not we get something before the mid-terms is, of course, important.  But just sending these messages carries its own weight.  Getting into the heads of the key staff of our legislators is absolutely critical to our long term cause, whatever happens in the next months. 
This is truly your battle and not anyone is going to fight it for you.  You have no idea how important you are, and how important you can be. 
Some good news:  we finally completed our Gofundme, thanks to about 1,100 donors over the past 13 months.   I have to say, however, that this fundraiser was originally intended to take only 1 month, so that we could focus only on the fight for 10 months.  It is a gut punch to think about how much more we could have accomplished over the past year+ had we not had to constantly worry about fundraising. 
I would like to sincerely request that you consider making a monthly, recurring commitment to keep our group in operation.  If we could get even 150 people to commit to donating $20/month, we would be free of this massively unproductive use of our time and energy.  Will you please consider it?
There is a lot going on currently, but I will leave it at that for now.  
This is the time to fight, folks. 
Please let's make this the strongest week ever for Student Loan Justice.
Thank You,
-Alan

Saturday....C-SPAN...FIGHT!!!

Picture
Everyone-
Our Gofundme is now within $365 of being complete. 99% of the way there.  Will you please kick into it or through the normal channels??  Please just make this easier on us?!
See our call yesterday morning at C-SPAN. I hope all of you will get a similar call on between now and October.
Lot's going on.  I'll have more for you later-
Sincerely,
Alan

Thursday Action...Breaking News...

Happy Thursday, All-
Our Gofundme is now 99% complete , thanks to Rachael and Bob.  Thanks also to Donna and Lara for their contributions through the normal channels.  We're close.  Please help put us over the top? Please make this easier on us?
New Report:  Student loan borrowers have only about half of the retirement saving as others.
This is just more evidence proving the academic fraud that was launched against us by two academics whose lies were repeated again and again in the mainstream media about how student loan borrowers are generally more wealthy.  Kent Smetters (U Penn) and Adam Looney (U Utah) need to be held accountable for this fraud, which effectively killed student loan cancellation. These two men both have Harvard Ph.Ds, and worked at the Treasury Department.  Both should be investigated
  • Please send emails to the Chiefs of Staff of their Senators and House Rep. tos aday.  Even if you already have, send a follow up.  They need to feel the pressure.
  • Repost this, this and this.
  • See us featured over the past couple of months at the Associated Press and the Independent (UK).  We need more of these...Tell your favorite (or least favorite) podcast to have us on.  We happily go into the Lion's Den to fight this battle.  We cannot be defeated in public conversation.
All the Congressional campaigns are now in full swing, folks. Time to push them...HARD! 
Make this week count. Have a Great Day-
Sincerely,
Alan

Help Us Fight!

Picture
Good Saturday, Ladies and Gentlemen-
We're needing to raise around $80 this weekend if possible.  Will you help?
Our Gofundme is now 98% complete, thanks to Rachael, Donald, Rick, John, Jesse and Jaliesa for their recent help on this.  

I hate that fundraising is so difficult for us...  

We are doing the most important work in the nation on the student loan issue.  I would not be doing this if this were not true.  We're being completely overshadowed by the corrupted groups, who take in millions every year from nefarious sources (usually the student loan industry), but the fact remains.  I really hope that you can appreciate that fact.
See Thurdsay's Livestream...  I estimate that around 450 people have sent emails to the Chiefs of Staff of their Senators and House Rep.  This is around every House Rep getting one email.  That's not nothing, but it's not nearly enough! Will you please send yours?  Follow up if you already have...Squeaky wheels...
All the campaigns are now in full swing.  This is precisely and exactly the right time to be pushing them all as hard as possible!
This group has done huge things...we need to do another huge thing!!!
With Best Regards,
Alan
