[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like he's dead set on rolling this back and rolling it bak quickly: https://www.politico.com/news/2024/11/26/trump-rollback-biden-student-debt-relief-00189841[/quote].

The only people in favor of student loan forgiveness are the people who have the loans. I would be in favor of 100% loan forgiveness to teachers and medical professionals with [b]the proviso that they must teach for ten years and medical professionals must practice in rural areas desperately in need of medical help for ten years.[/b][/quote]

The only way to ensure this would be to forgive the loans after they've done those 10 years.   They should still make at least the minimum payments on the loan in the meantime.[/quote]

This is what the law governing PSLF already requires. We literally have this law on the books. You work in public service + make 120 on time payments = you get remaining balance of the student loan forgiven.

The problem was that Betsy de Vos refused to enforce the law in 2017 and approve PSLF forgiveness for those who already did their service and made 120 payments. She literally was refusing to follow the law and lots of people were suing the Dept of Ed. It wasn’t until Biden came into office that they began approving PSLF forgiveness in accordance with the law.

Look, Betsy de Vos was acting like the law didn’t exist. It was egregious. Yet none of you crowing about student loans were harping on this lawless behavior by the first Trump administration. [/quote]

Two wrongs don’t make a right.[/quote]

What is wrong about following the law congress enacted? [/quote]
