The Trump administration has agreed to a student loan forgiveness deal that will allow millions of borrowers to see relief, The Hill reports. The administration reached a deal with the American Federation of Teachers last week that resumes student debt relief, mostly for those who have been paying on their loans for the past 20 to 25 years. Under the deal, the U.S. Education Department will continue to process relief for borrowers in the Income-Contingent Repayment plan and Pay as You Earn plan, until those programs are eliminated in 2028. The deal also reportedly will benefit those on the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program.
