, including both federal and private student loan debt. Sanders’ student loan forgiveness plan has no eligibility requirements; all 45 million student loan borrowers are eligible for student loan discharge. Sanders believes that among other benefits, student loan forgiveness would help millions of borrowers lead a better financial life and stimulate the economy.

an estimated 2.2 trillion. To pay for these plans, Sanders would institute a “Wall Street speculation tax” that will raise an estimated $2.4 trillion over the next ten years. The “speculation tax” would work like this: a 0.5% tax on stock trades, a 0.1% fee on bond trades, and a 0.005% fee on derivative trades. For example, if $100 of stock is traded, the “speculation tax” would be $0.50.
