Trump order restricts PSLF eligibility for certain nonprofits
Briefly

President Trump’s recent executive action targets the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program, directing the Education Department to undergo extensive rulemaking that limits eligibility. While immediate changes are not expected, the order could affect numerous nonprofit employees seeking debt relief. The administration claims the move aims to restore the program and curb subsidization of illegal activities, yet critics argue it weaponizes federal resources against public servants. The PSLF program, founded in 2007, was created to incentivize public service through student loan forgiveness after ten years of qualifying payments.
Don't be fooled, today's executive order is blatantly illegal. It is an attack on working families everywhere and will have a chilling effect on our public service workforce doing the work every day to support our local communities.
The administration argued the order was a necessary step to restore the program and end the subsidization of illegal activities.
