BREAKING NEWS: AG Dan Rayfield sues U.S. Dept. of Education to block restrictions on Public Service Loan Forgiveness
AG Dan Rayfield and a multistate coalition filed a lawsuit today against the U.S. Department of Education for unlawfully restricting eligibility for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program, which allows government and nonprofit employees to have their federal student loans forgiven after ten years of service. The coalition is challenging a new federal rule that would deem certain state and local governments or nonprofit organizations ineligible employers for PSLF if the federal government determines they have engaged in actions with a substantial illegal purpose β in practice, activities or actions that are disfavored by the administration. The coalition argues that the sweeping new rule is unlawful and targeted to punish states and organizations that the administration does not like.
In Oregon, the state and its agencies employ many dedicated public servants who join the state with student debt. PSLF provides an important recruiting and retention tool for Oregon, just as it does for other government and public interest organizations throughout the state.
βThis is not only illegal, but also deeply troubling. It gives the federal government the power to decide which public servants βcountβ based on politics. Oregonians who dedicate their careers to public service β teachers, nurses, firefighters, and countless others - shouldnβt lose their benefits because of who they work for or what their community stands for.β
