🚨🔔This is yet another attack on the working class! They want to limit our ability to go college by reducing the federal loan system & trapping the millions who do in perpetual debt. This is adding fuel to the fire that is the student debt crisis!

☎️📱Call Your Legislators! Tell them to vote NO!

Every day that IDR applications go unprocessed deprives student loan borrowers of critical time toward relief and financial stability.

🚨🧵As the Trump administration cuts 50% of the Department of Ed & threatens to move the student loan repayment program to the Small Business Administration, we can expect issues processing paperwork, accuracy of payment records, & issues with PSLF and IDR eligible payments records. Protect Yourself:

Trump has updated the department's income-driven federal student loan repayment programs, causing some borrowers to see their monthly payments rise to anywhere from $500 to $5,000.

Trump & Vought's CFPB just dropped its lawsuit against @PHEAAaid for illegally pursuing borrowers for debts already discharged in bankruptcy.

This is a slap in the face. It's clear who Trump & Vought want to protect—it is NOT working families.

CFPB Drops Enforcement Action Against Predatory Student Loan Company - Student Borrower Protection Center
Today, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) withdrew its lawsuit against the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA), the giant student loan servicer whom the Bureau sued in 2024 for illegally pursuing borrowers for debts that had been discharged in bankruptcy.

Trump’s chaos agenda is costing families. Instead of lowering costs, he’s tried freezing funds communities rely on and now wants to gut @usedgov—hurting students and families even more. #EducationNotDebt

Trump and his billionaire BFFs like Elon Musk want to cut taxes for the rich and make students and families pay. They want to make college more expensive, spike your student loan bills, and prop up predatory for-profit schools. Not OK. #EducationNotDebt #CancelStudentDebt

A former WWE exec with ZERO education experience. Linda McMahon is a Trump loyalist who will rubber-stamp Project 2025 policies that hurt public education and make the student debt crisis worse. #EducationNotDebt #CancelStudentDebt

Voters OPPOSE Trump’s Project 2025 plan to abolish @usedgov. New polling shows it’s wildly unpopular. Families want solutions, not more chaos. #StopProject2025 #EducationNotDebt
