Join us live for our Millennial Takeover of The @LeslieMarshall show! As Congress moves forward with the #PROSPERAct, we'll take a look at what higher education advocates are doing to stop this bill. Join us, @SenyaSimron, @markhatton11, and @jonathanallen44.
Today SGA presidents from the Big 10 schools released a letter urging Congress to oppose the #PROSPERAct. @jonathanallen44 says "we wanted to make sure that the student voice was heard on this topic."
You can read the letter sent to Members of Congress written by @jonathanallen44 and other SGA presidents here:
.@markhatton11, Campaign Manager at @CAPHigherEd notes that the cost of college has risen 20 percent since the last time Congress reauthorized the Higher Education Act ten years ago.
The #PROSPERAct would eliminate the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. This impacts teachers, firefighters, and police officers who are working in public service jobs and are trying to pay down their loans.
That’s a wrap for today’s show! Thank you @SenyaSimron, @markhatton11, and @jonathanallen44 for all your work on the higher ed front!
