Higher education should open doors—not lock young people into decades of debt. Today, too many students graduate burdened with loans that delay buying a home, starting a family, or launching a business. That debt holds back not only individuals, but also our economy and our communities.
Debt-free college is an investment in America’s future. By ensuring students can pursue higher education without crushing financial strain, we:
- Empower opportunity — allowing every student, regardless of income, to follow their talents.
- Strengthen the workforce — preparing the next generation for the jobs of tomorrow.
- Grow the economy — when young people aren’t trapped by debt, they can invest, innovate, and contribute fully.
Education is the foundation of progress. By making college debt-free, we aren’t giving young people a handout—we’re giving our nation a stronger future.
