RED ALERT: Trump's education budget eliminates student loan repayment and forgiveness programs
Y’all this shit is BAD. REALLY REALLY REALLY BAD.
These assholes not only want to scrap the PSLF program, one which I and so many other social workers (and healthcare workers and teachers) have structured our careers and repayment plans around, they also want to gut the Perkins loan program for disadvantaged students and cut work-study programs in half. They also want to replace the current five income-based repayment options (of which mine is one) with a single, more expensive option.
Please call/fax/write your reps and demand that they block this budget!!
