4 more days until the #PSLF waiver expires and I'm feeling all kinds of feelings. I'm feeling hopeful which I didn't expect. Did as many people through as deserved it? No. It's been 15 years since PSLF started and ED, FSA, and the White House are still not taking it seriously. 1)
But I think we finally broke through on #PSLF in the past year in a way we don't fully understand. 2022 the door was opened. 2023 is when we're really going to see full cancellation take off for a generation of public sector workers. We can't understand it, yet. 2)
