Watch Live: @rweingarten is announcing the settlement of Weingarten v. DeVos. #PSLF

"It has literally saved my life. It has restored my hope." - AFT member and career choir teacher Debbie Baker of Oklahoma will have $81,336 discharged.

Peter Huk lectures in writing at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and will have $33,913 discharged. He said he was excited to fill out our survey about #PSLF when we first sent it to members.

This shows that unions matter. Without collective action, this would have never happened. - Adjunct professor Dr. Jessica Saint-Paul #PSLF

"This is a really amazing moment. Thank you @POTUS, @SecCardona, our laywers and every single public service worker in America." - @rweingarten
