About This Webinar
AFT Member Town Hall
On July 1, some of the harshest changes to the federal student loan system in decades take effect. This is no accident. These rules were pushed through by an administration that decided educators, nurses, and public service workers should pay more, borrow less, and wait longer for the relief they were promised.
Join AFT President Randi Weingarten for an emergency virtual town hall on what's being taken from borrowers and how we fight back. We'll break down the repayment plans being ripped away and replaced with a costlier system; the new restrictions on Public Service Loan Forgiveness that put years of payments at risk for the people who serve our communities; the elimination of Grad PLUS loans and new borrowing caps that lock working families out of graduate and professional degrees; and the deadlines you cannot afford to miss before July 1. You'll learn exactly how these changes hit your loans, what you can still do to protect yourself, and how to join the fight to reverse them. Come with your questions and hear how AFT is fighting for you.
