I just saw that Richard Cordray is the Federal Student Aid chief operating officer under Biden! [View all]

I'm sure you all remember Cordray. He was the 1st director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an agency that Elizabeth Warren worked to create when Obama was president.

He also ran for Ohio governor in 2018, narrowly losing to DeWine (ugh).

I feel even better about what Biden is doing with Student Loans knowing Cordray is there.

One underrated aspect about Biden's presidency has been who he's filled his administration with.
