Since no one apparently read the article, it’s the Democrats doing this.
The Debt Collective named Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.), Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.), and Rep. Rick Larsen (D-Wash.) as particularly responsible for the language.
And since no one read the BILL, Ted Cruz is one of the people that cosponsored this. Of the 4 sponsors, Cruz is the only one that is actively campaigning against debt relief. Even Moran, the other Republican cosponsor, has pushed for debt relief for service members.
This smells of classic Cruz. He’s a petty little cunt and would totally sneak something like this into a routine authoritarian bill that no one is proofreading.
I find that really unlikely as both Schumer and Duckworth have called for debt cancellation by executive order and even if they were secretly opposed it’s a good campaign issue that can be reliably blocked by the filibuster or the courts. I think it’s just Debt Collective being a little loose with the definition of “responsible” to prompt outrage and more calls to the people who have power to do something (which is a good thing).
Ted Cruz ® is a cosponsor, and is the only sponsor that campaigns against student debt relief, and is a weasel that loves to sneak things in when no one is looking.
I probably should have provided context. Of the two Democratic and two Republican sponsors, Cruz ® is the one is actively campaigning against student debt relief in the press.
Also, of the people that voted for tanking Biden’s debt relief plan, only 3 were democrats. Tester, Manchin, and Sinema. The latter two are famously out of step with their party.
All in all, the Democratic Party has a track record of supporting student debt relief, and the Republican Party has a track record of opposing it. Also, of the people sneaking anti debt relief language in this bill, odd are is was the big anti-debt relief tea party republican.

My money is on Ted Cruz. This article completely fails to mention that Cruz is one of the sponsors.
Also, Cruz is the ONLY sponsor who hasn’t supported student debt relief in some form, and the only sponsor that campaigns against it in public.
And, least we forget, he’s a sneaky little shit that loves to sneak stuff past people when they’re not paying attention.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, vote both of them out.
A vote for neither of them is a vote for trump. The two party system needs to be changed.
Which will never happen while we vote for either side

Yeah, hence why I said both, as in both parties
