ATLANTA — After the ground-thumping music died down, Stacey Abrams took the stage in west Atlanta to congratulate dozens of teens on graduating from high school — and pledge she'll find new ways to relieve their student debt if she's elected governor.
"We know that affordability is an increasing issue in the state but it's a solvable problem," Abrams said Monday. "And we don't have to raise taxes to raise the quality of life in Georgia. All we have to do is spend our money right."
While student loan debt has become an emerging flashpoint among Democrats, the party's top contenders in Georgia have unequivocally chosen sides.
