Student Loan Debt

We must address student debt. The average student accumulates $30,000 of debt after four years of college, and the average starting salary with a four-year degree is $50,000. Fifty years ago, those figures would be $7,000 of debt and a $66,000 salary, adjusted for inflation.
Minnesota is home to some of the best public colleges and universities in the country. Lack of wealth should not deter someone who wants to pursue higher education. We must make sure that public post-secondary education is affordable and accessible, whether that’s technical school, obtaining an associate’s degree, or earning a bachelor's degrees. People should not be saddled with a lifetime of crushing debt for pursuing a higher education.

For the past eight years, Jen worked tirelessly to implement common-sense solutions for her neighbors, her community, her district, and her state. She hears the frustration voiced by many in the district who criticize the lack of leadership and tangible results from our current U.S. Representative and his votes that undermine our needs and our Democracy. It’s time for the 8th district to return to competent, results-driven representation in Washington.

The work has just begun. GOP super PACs are already raising dark money to run nonstop attack ads. We’re counting on grassroots supporters like you to invest in our vision and help us get things done.
