The Trump administration is moving to “prevent benefits” for some student loan borrowers under the popular Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, according to an announcement on Monday.
The U.S. Department of Education said it issued a notice of proposed rulemaking on its regulations to halt loan forgiveness under PSLF for employees “of organizations that are undermining national security and American values through illegal means.”
PSLF, which President George W. Bush signed into law in 2007, allows many not-for-profit and government employees to have their federal student loans canceled after 10 years of payments.
