From just last week, watch Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) grill Consumer Bankers Association CEO Richard Hunt on the slow progress being made by commercial banks to allow the discharge of student loan debt that was co-signed by parents or grandparents of children or grandchildren whose lives were cut short.
