Midterms May Shift Student Loan Policy Landscape

Midterm elections present a pivotal moment for student loan policy.

Advocates for borrowers view next week’s voting as an opportunity to scrutinize and possibly overturn policies from the Trump administration that have delayed or denied debt relief and raised monthly payments.

Democrats have the chance on Tuesday to retake both the House and the Senate, a shift that could foster a friendlier climate for student loan borrowers.

All eyes are on the ballot as the outcome may determine the next chapter of federal student debt relief.
