Treasury Department Proposes Tax Rules Potentially Affecting Public Service Loan Forgiveness

The Treasury Department has proposed new tax rules that could impact borrowers pursuing Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF). Critics suggest these rules, which allow denying tax-exempt status to racially discriminatory nonprofit educational institutions, might be used to target schools opposing administration policies, thereby affecting their employees' PSLF eligibility. This could alter the landscape for many public service workers.
