Warren, in turn, promoted her stance on low-cost college education, citing her alma mater, whose mascot happens to be a cougar.

"It's always a good day to be reminded that I got where I am because a great education was available for $50 a semester at the University of Houston (go Cougars!). We need to cancel student debt and make college free for everyone who wants it," Warren tweeted.
