I believe Trump is reinstating income based repayment options which had been paused while the new Administration looked at the Biden administration’s illegal student loan forgiveness schemes.

It's a major policy pivot for sure, interesting times

Maybe the protestors should thank their king for it

If this is about the program that’s been around for a while it was already discussed here.

If this is about the reinstatement of the IBR, which originated in the 90s and was revamped in 2009, we had a thread at least a week ago. It was a temporary pause in an old policy during DOGE. It was always coming back.

The student loan law specifically authorized IBR plans. The administration had to look at the way the Biden administration had bastardized them in order to make the plans consistent with the laws passed by Congress.

People who were due to have their loans forgiven are back on track to have their loans forgiven after a pause earlier this year. Its not Trump suddenly forgiving loans that weren't going to be forgiven anyway.


quote:

To qualify for these plans, borrowers typically must have made 20 to 25 years of consecutive qualifying payments, depending on loan origination date and plan enrollment. As of October 2025, these plans account for more than 2 million borrowers.

The recent legal settlement, filed on October 17, between the Department of Education and AFT confirms that the administration will now resume loan cancellations for the two IDR plans, grant payment refunds to eligible borrowers, and provide regular status updates to ensure transparency and compliance with federal law.

Not really. The forgiveness of these loans is Congressionally mandated IIRC

Libs ignore that the Supreme Court struck down Biden’s illegal schemes multiple times and Biden just ignored the rulings. Yet they tell us Trump is the threat to Democracy….
