Foxx to ED: Hardworking Taxpayers Are Fed Up with Your Fiscal Incompetency

WASHINGTON - Today, Education and the Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) issued the following statement rebuking the Biden administration's latest attempt to saddle taxpayers with $9 billion in unpaid student debt:

"The Department of Education acts as if hardworking taxpayers are both willing and able to foot a tab worth billions of dollars that they do not owe. Either the Department is blissfully ignorant of its own binding legal constraints, or it is purposefully evading Congress' approval and pushing forward with its own illegal charade - the latter is the obvious answer. Hardworking taxpayers deserve much better than this."
