Summary

Governor Ron DeSantis is the only sitting governor who has already qualified for the second Republican Primary Debate in the 2024 Presidential Election. Despite falling 37 points behind former President Donald Trump in the most recent FOX News Poll, Floridians seem to approve of his ability to manage his state during the Category 4 Hurricane Idalia. Gerald L. Baliles Professor and Director of Presidential Studies at the University of Virginia's Miller Center Barbara Perry explains how the governor's management of Florida can possibly boost his numbers for the Republican primary and help him stand out on the campaign trail. After a lengthy pause due to the pandemic and a lost fight in the Supreme Court, student loan payments begin next month. Despite the loss, the Biden Administration refuses to give up on providing borrowers with relief through various initiatives and legislation, such as the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) Plan and. President and Founder of Mitlin Financial Lawrence Sprung explains what impact federal involvement will have on borrowers and what students can expect as their pause is finally over.
