Trump wants to pick favorites in every arena - grant funding, college admissions, and now PSLF. But we stand up and fight back.
The Trump-Vance administration's new rule could deny teachers, nurses, social workers, & nonprofit staff the #PSLF they were promised...if their employer works on issues Trump doesn't like.
This is a political purge, & it's illegal. @borrowerjustice.bsky.social www.aft.org/press-releas...
