    Student loan debt continues to rise--up $7b to $1.12t in Q2: http://bit.ly/1mNAXJg  We must act to reduce this burden for our college grads.

        @SenGillibrand don't borrow if you can't pay it back. Simple.

        @SenGillibrand what about on the parents because undergrad loans are in the parents name - the students loans are limited and not enough.

        .@SenGillibrand Gov't could pay it all off, pay off the next 10 years, and ensure 0% rate for future borrowers, all for less than our wars.

        @SenGillibrand Why not just tie US student loan repayments to income as default and peg them to inflation? Cap uni tuition. Works in UK.
