02/10/2023 Letter to Miguel Cardona, Secretary of Education - Cassidy, Foxx, Colleagues Urge Biden Administration to Revoke their Reckless Student Loan Scheme
10/31/2022 Tweet - "To favor or discriminate against students based on race or ethnicity in the college & university application process is simply immoral & divisive. We need to be a nation where people will be judged by their merits & the content of their character, not the color of their skin."
08/29/2022 Tweet - "While the Biden admin is busy turning its back on families, I'm fighting to #MakeWashingtonWork. If Dems really want to solve our student debt crisis, then let's actually solve the problem by holding colleges & universities accountable to taxpayers."
08/24/2022 Tweet - "Democrats' push to "forgive" student loans won't solve the problem. We need REAL solutions that don't create an added burden on taxpayers. My #COLLEGEAct will actually hold universities accountable for student outcomes & force them to answer for sky-rocketing tuition costs."
08/23/2022 Tweet - "Wiping out millions of dollars in student loans doesn't solve the problem. Instead, it forces millions of hardworking Americans, already struggling to afford high prices, to foot the bill for other people's degrees. And it could make inflation even worse."
