Student Loan Overhaul Approved by Congress


Welcome to my underground lair! I just wanted to mention that the Congress has also passed the reconciliation bill 56-43, which is even more good news for young people and students involved in student loan programs. The following quote comes from the article:

"Democrats celebrated the legislation, a centerpiece of President Obama’s education agenda, as a far-reaching overhaul of federal financial aid, providing a huge infusion of money to the Pell grant program and offering new help to lower-income graduates in getting out from under crushing student debt."

-As someone who is still paying heaps of student loans back, I am pleased to see some actual improvements made.
