<P style="MARGIN: 1.5em 0em 1em">Dear Agnes,</P>
<P>Student loan rates will double in one week – if Republicans in
the Congress continue to hold them hostage. We need to pressure them
to act.</P>
<P><A
href="http://caf.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=LSLVgipMt34IezLHWD0ThQQKtzrmGONg"><B>Click
here to demand your representatives in Congress stop the student
loan rate increase.</B></A></P>
<P>President Obama supports keeping the current Stafford Loan
interest rate at a low 3.4% rate. The House Republican budget would
make interest rates on those student loans double.</P>
<P>Since passing their budget, House Republicans claim they want to
keep student rates low too, but only if we “pay for” the $6 billion
by taking it out of the hide of another vulnerable group. Not
surprisingly, health care is one of their targets.</P>
<P>Congress needs to hear from us, so they understand how important
this is. We expect them to invest in our students’ future, not use
them as pawns to make someone else suffer.</P>

here to demand your representatives in Congress stop the student
loan rate increase.</B></A></P>
<P>Conservatives routinely claim we need severe austerity to save
the next generation from massive debt. Yet here they are, about to
dump more debt on them right now – an average of over $1000 in added
interest costs over the burdens students already face.</P>
<P>The last thing our economy needs is to pick the pockets of the
next generation as college graduates struggle to get a toehold in
the weak job market.</P>
<P>We can end the obstruction. We just need to stand up and speak
out. <A
