White House Twitter Blasts Greene, Gaetz and Kelly on Forgiven PPP Loans

The White House is attacking multiple GOP lawmakers for hypocrisy after they complained about President Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness program despite having large loans of their own forgiven by the government.

Biden announced a plan on Wednesday to forgive up to $20,000 in federal student loan debt to individual borrowers, prompting a firestorm of criticism from Republicans, many of whom argued that the debt relief was "unfair" because it would not apply to those who never went to college or had already paid off their loans.

The official White House Twitter account on Thursday hit back against Republican critics who had far larger amounts of debt forgiven after taking out Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, which were signed into law by former President Donald Trump as part of the CARES Act in March 2020.
