Hi, all, and happy Friday! I drove up to Santa Cruz yesterday for a long weekend with old friends, so I’m writing this and then going off to spend the day with them in a botanical garden. As I like to remind myself (and you)—there is a time to work; there must also be a time to play.
Enjoy your weekend up here in Santa Cruz. Lots of devoted followers and devoted doers here grateful for all you are doing to defend democracy’s ideals.
Forgiving $50,000 of every student loan will not help seniors who have been paying on their student loans for decades (in my case, 29 years). Our balances are well over $100,000, because only a tiny percentage of what is taken out of our Social Security goes toward the principal. In my case, $10 out of $175 goes toward the principal, and I'm sure this percentage is the norm for seniors. We are forgotten in the push for canceling loans. At 77, after working for 65 years, I still have to work almost full time to pay for rent, food, and car. Seniors need FULL forgiveness of their loans.
Thank you for all the action-ideas. Why are we not asking ( instead) that Medical Debt be canceled.

Thanks, I did the Resistbot action! ~Denny from Minnesota
