Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden wants to make community and technical college free and federal college loan programs more generous as he shifts leftward but not as far as his 2020 rivals. The crux of Biden's higher education plan is a federal-state partnership to cover community college tuition and technical training. Biden proposes that the federal government cover 95% of the community college tuition cost at Native Americans' tribal campuses. Sanders, conversely, proposes eliminating all student loan debt, while Warren calls for broad debt relief based on income. Biden calls for eliminating certain breaks in inheritance taxes and capping itemized deductions for the wealthiest Americans.
