Biden Reverses On Debt Cancellation For Hundreds of Thousands

Biden Reverses On Debt Cancellation For Hundreds of Thousands

In a remarkable reversal, the U.S. Department of Education has quietly changed its guidance around who qualifies for President Biden's sweeping student debt relief plan.

This episode: White House correspondent Tamara Keith, senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro, and education correspondent Cory Turner.
