Joe Perez is exactly the type of voter President Biden and former President Donald J. Trump are fighting over: A 22-year-old Hispanic man in Las Vegas who grew up leaning Republican, he also supports abortion rights and was turned off by the Capitol rioters on Jan. 6, 2021. But Mr. Perez — unenthusiastic about a Biden-Trump rematch, overwhelmed by the news and disillusioned by politics — is tuning out. “If you ask me right now what’s going on with, like, the presidential race, or the situation in Gaza or Ukraine or whatever, I don’t think I can answer,” said Mr. Perez, who supported Mr. Trump in 2020 and is intrigued by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. now. “I’m not trying to follow that anymore.”Instead, said Mr. Perez, a valet who hopes to become a firefighter, “I’m just going to have to roll with the punches, because I don’t think I’m going to make a difference.”

The House passed a bill on Wednesday to overturn Biden's student-debt relief plans. The measure passed by a vote of 218-203 — but it wasn't just Republicans who voted in favor of the legislation. Democratic Reps. Jared Golden of Maine and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington joined Republicans in voting in favor of overturning Biden's student-debt relief policies. The bill to overturn student-debt relief now heads to the closely divided Senate, where it faces an uncertain path ahead. "House Republicans just voted to throw 260K public servants back into debt & force 36 million Americans to immediately pay back months of paused student loans," Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren wrote on Twitter on Wednesday.
