On Thursday’s broadcast of Bloomberg’s “Balance of Power,” White House Council of Economic Advisers member Heather Boushey specified that President Joe Biden is combating inflation and its effect by “reducing the expense of trainee financial obligation for all of those customers” with the trainee loan strategy he revealed previously in the week.
Boushey stated,”[T]he President has actually been concentrated on utilizing all the tools that he has at his disposal to make certain that he decreases expenses for households. This is the very first President to be working out with Big Pharma over prescription drug costs. That’s going to lower costs for elders all throughout the nation. Naturally, he’s decreasing the expense of trainee financial obligation for all of those debtors. He made a huge statement previously today, and it’s going to impact 30 million debtors throughout the nation. And he’s simply truly concentrated on all the other manner ins which we see rates increase. All the work that we’ve done throughout the administration to get rid of scrap charges, those concealed charges that we all have to deal with. It’s including up these, the President is doing his part to actually resolve the reality that it’s been hard on households to have these high rates, and to do what he can to reduce them.”
