I commend @POTUS for delivering on a promise to bring financial relief to those suffering from the nearly $2T student loan debt. This action will make a big difference & help unleash the economic potential of thousands of student borrowers in N.C. & millions across the country.
We thank the reps of @SenatorBurr @SenThomTillis & @GKButterfield who visited @thercchc today to celebrate Nat’l Health Center Week & tour the mobile unit. We’re glad CHCs have bipartisan support & look forward to working together to meet funding challenges ahead. #nhcw2022
