Interviews with: Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Rep. Tim Ryan, Gov. Chris Sununu

from State of the Union · host CNN Podcasts

Our main focus this week is on President Biden's controversial decision to forgive student loan debt for millions of borrowers.  First, Dana Bash asks Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren whether Biden's plan is fair for those Americans who have already worked to pay off their debt.  Next, Dana goes one-on-one with Ohio Democratic Senate candidate Rep. Tim Ryan, who says his party needs a renewed "laser-like focus on the economic well-being of the average person."  Then, Republican Gov. Chris Sununu slams the student loan forgiveness program, calling it "a really, really bad idea."  This week's panelists: Democratic strategist Paul Begala, former Trump White House Communications Director Alyssa Farah Griffin, CNN Political Commentator Ashley Allison and CNN Political Commentator Scott Jennings weigh in on Biden's student loan plan and if Democrats will be able to hold on to their control of the House and the Senate after the midterms.
