    Excited to announce my plan to help alleviate student loan debt! The HELPER Act would allow individuals to use money from their 401(k) or IRA to pay for college or to pay back student loan debt. Watch the video to learn more!pic.twitter.com/2C6fNEnZOU

        Hahaha! Drain your IRA at $5,000 a year to pay for college. And enjoy your retirement as as Wal-Mart greeter.

        Your plan to alleviate student loan debt is to encourage people to drain out their retirement savings to pay it off. Brilliant! </sarcasm>

        This is...out of touch. People w/massive student loan debt don't typically have retirement, much less enough retirement to pay off the debt. The best case end result is raiding retirement (not smart). & it doesn't do *anything* about the exorbitant cost of college. Thx 4 nothing.

        The average college age student hasn’t worked yet so has no Retirement Savings?

        People are now retiring with student debt. He’s after anything he can get from people.

        Hahahahaha hahahahaha Your plan for those who can’t afford healthcare: use a health savings account HSA Your plan for helping us get out from crushing student loan debt: use your non-existing 401k So out of touch comrade

        Then they try to eliminate Social Security, which we will need because we used our retirement savings to paynoff student loans...pic.twitter.com/pYQHX1bs5p

        This is such a great idea. People with crippling student loan debt always have huge 401Ks. Maybe you could also put in a provision to allow them to convert unicorn farts to bitcoin to pay that debt down even further.

        Literally nobody under 30 who has a 401(k) or IRA is at risk of bankruptcy from their student loans

        What's with conservatives and wanting people to sell out any future they might have to pay for something that society should provide?
