Just ONE of the 41 Democrat members of Congress who owe student loan debt said they'd support adding an exemption to student loan forgiveness legislation that would ensure they don't benefit from it.
The Washington Free Beacon asked each of the 41 Democrat offices on Tuesday whether they would support adding an exemption to make members of Congress ineligible from benefiting from taxpayer-funded student debt relief. Only one, Rep. Dan Soto (D., Fla.), said yes.
"Yes, Rep. Soto would be in favor of exempting members of Congress," said Oriana Piña, his communications director.
According to House and Senate financial disclosures, 63 members of Congress have student loan debt totaling between $2.3 and $5.9 million. Of these members, 41 Democrats account for 70 percent of total congressional student debt.

Seeing is believing. They exempt themselves from any and all laws they pass, but not this one because they will benefit from this law. They think the Public is all idiots and believe them.
I'm going to run for congress and propose everyone's credit card bills are paid off. I'm maxed out on everything.
