Democrats in Congress introduced a resolution to overturn the Trump administration's changes to the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. The program cancels loans for qualified public service workers after a decade of payments. The new rule, set to take effect in July, allows the Education Secretary to kick employers out of the program if their work has a 'substantial illegal purpose.' Democrats say the changes are political and could affect borrowers who work at schools, public hospitals, and legal aid groups. The changes are seen as targeting employers who support undocumented immigrants or transgender youth. A similar measure was introduced in the House.
