The United States has not made a dent in reducing its student loan debt problem, and it’s time for the nation to address this issue. A major school reform bill, which passed in both the Senate and House earlier this summer, originally included funding to cancel out all student loan debt above $50k – but that measure was ultimately stripped from the legislation due to opposition by Senators Collins and Blunt.
In addition to those opposed on economic grounds, there is also some question about whether or not these loans are actually available for students.
