Alleged politicization of public service student loan forgiveness sparks lawsuit against Trump administration
The Education Department published a rule that could block federal student loan borrowers who work for entities that provide assistance to migrants or trans youth from the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program.
A coalition of more than a dozen cities, unions and nonprofits filed a lawsuit to block a new Education Department rule they say will punish organizations doing work the Trump administration opposes on ideological grounds.
On November 30, the Education Department issued a final rule to exclude organizations that engage in unlawful activities from participating in the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program.
Under PSLF, individuals who work at an eligible government agency or nonprofit for 10 years and make monthly payments during that time can have the remainder of certain federal student loan balances waived.
No comment from the administration was provided.
