I find that really unlikely as both Schumer and Duckworth have called for debt cancellation by executive order and even if they were secretly opposed it’s a good campaign issue that can be reliably blocked by the filibuster or the courts. I think it’s just Debt Collective being a little loose with the definition of “responsible” to prompt outrage and more calls to the people who have power to do something (which is a good thing).

My money is on Ted Cruz. This article completely fails to mention that Cruz is one of the sponsors.
Also, Cruz is the ONLY sponsor who hasn’t supported student debt relief in some form, and the only sponsor that campaigns against it in public.
And, least we forget, he’s a sneaky little shit that loves to sneak stuff past people when they’re not paying attention.
