Washington Comedian Hasan Minhaj called on Congress to address the student loan debt crisis Tuesday, calling it a"paywall to the middle class."
"I think it's a huge problem that the youth of America have to bombard their favorite rapper or pop musician and ask them to pay back their student loans," Minhaj said at a House Financial Services Committee hearing. The comedian and political commentator is the host of the Netflix show Patriot Act, which earlier this year ran an episode highlighting the problems with student loan servicers.
