Approximately 8 million student loan borrowers are enrolled in the SAVE plan, aimed at reducing monthly repayments. However, this plan has faced legal challenges and is currently paused, causing uncertainty among borrowers. Many, including Trump supporters, express disappointment over the lack of government action to alleviate their financial burdens. Individuals like Natasha Stephens emphasize their reliance on the plan for affordability, highlighting how potential cancellation of the SAVE plan could jeopardize their housing and basic needs as they navigate economic pressures while supporting families.
If we didn't have our family support helping us with the kids and food and stuff like that, we would not be making it every month.
It feels like they're just going to leave everybody to either pay it or suffer.
Under the SAVE plan, Stephens owed $0 monthly based on her income level.
While the legal fate of the plan is still in limbo, borrowers are stuck wondering when they'll have to resume repayment.
