Congressman Vern Buchanan had over $2.3 million in PPP loans forgiven.

As a blue-collar kid who worked his way through college, I know firsthand the sacrifices people make to receive an education.

Biden’s reckless, unilateral student loan giveaway is unfair to the 87 percent of Americans without student loan debt and those who played by the rules.

Congressman Markwayne Mullin had over $1.4 million in PPP loans forgiven.

We do not need farmers and ranchers, small business owners, and teachers in Oklahoma paying the debts of Ivy League lawyers and doctors across the U.S.

This places undue burden on those already suffering due to the weight of Biden’s failed economic policy.
