Democrats have been given hundreds of millions of donations from the higher education industry before President Joe Biden canceled up to $10,000 in student loan debt on Wednesday, records show.

Democrats are the largest recipient of political donations from individuals associated with the education industry in the 2020 election cycle as well as the current midterm election, according to OpenSecrets, a nonprofit that tracks money in politics and campaign finance records.
