Forbes: Lawmakers Introduce Bill To Prevent Runaway Student Loan Interest
The federal government faces a challenge in transitioning borrowers back into student loan repayment. The FAIR Act, proposed by Republican representatives, aims to simplify repayment plans, prevent interest accumulation, and incentivize lower-income borrowers to make payments. This proposal would have a transformative impact on student loan repayment, ending negative amortization and ensuring that borrowers see their balances decrease over time. However, the bill comes with a significant cost of canceling millions of dollars in student loan interest every month. It could also reduce students' price sensitivity and potentially allow for tuition increases. It is suggested that pairing the FAIR Act with limits on new borrowing would help keep costs down. Ultimately, the proposed plan offers a sensible reform to protect borrowers and help them pay down their loans during the monumental task of transitioning millions of borrowers back into repayment.
