One more Democratic lawmaker has voiced concerns about President Joe Biden’s plan to forgive student debt, while Republicans in Congress continue to speak out against the decision.

Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio), who is facing Republican nominee J.D. Vance in the Ohio Senate race in November, told CNN on Aug. 28 that Biden’s decision sent “the wrong message.”
