Key FactsNew Rule Bars Loan Forgiveness for Illegal Employer Acts

Summary created with AI assistance · Source: cbsnews.com

The Department of Education proposes denying loan forgiveness to public service employees whose employers engage in illegal conduct.

Examples include aiding terrorism, immigration violations, and harmful procedures on children as defined by the rule.

Employees impacted can remain in the program only if they transfer to an eligible employer.

Opponents argue the rule risks arbitrary exclusions and could be used to target groups opposing the administration's policies.

To be clear, if implemented this proposal would allow the secretary [of education] to disqualify from PSLF any employees of school systems that accurately teach the U.S.' history of slavery.
— Winston Berkman-Breen, legal director of the Student Borrower Protection Center, said in a June 30 public hearing on the proposal.
