#StudentLoans in default to be referred to #DebtCollection, #EducationDepartment says
By ANNIE MA, April 21, 2025
WASHINGTON (AP) — "The Education Department will begin collection next month on student loans that are in default, including the garnishing of wages for potentially millions of borrowers, officials said Monday.
"Currently, roughly 5.3 million borrowers are in default on their federal student loans.
"The Trump administration ’s announcement marks an end to a period of leniency that began during the COVID-19 pandemic. No federal student loans have been referred for collection since March 2020, including those in default. Under President Joe Biden, the Education Department tried multiple times to give broad forgiveness of student loans, only to be stopped by courts.
" 'American taxpayers will no longer be forced to serve as collateral for irresponsible student loan policies,' #EducationSecretary #LindaMcMahon said.
"Beginning May 5, the department will begin involuntary collection through the Treasury Department’s offset program, which withholds government payments — including tax refunds, federal salaries and other benefits — from people with past-due debts to the government. After a 30-day notice, the department also will begin garnishing wages for borrowers in default.
"The decision to send debt to collections drew criticism from advocates, who said borrowers had experienced whiplash and confusion with the changing student loan policies between the Biden and Trump administrations."

#SpecialEducationalNeeds in #England in ‘crisis’, minister admits -
Special educational needs provision in England is in the grip of a “crisis”, the #EducationSecretary has said, as school unions questioned whether a funding boost promised for the sector by the government was actually new money and said it fell a long way short of what was needed

#Tory #Government ‘has not met any #LGBTQIA+ #organisations’ about #guidance for #trans #issues in #schools.
“It is frankly insulting that the #EducationSecretary has been preparing this #guidance for at least six months and hasn’t met even once with a single #LGBTQ #organisation.”
