US Education Department Ends Appeals in Public Service Loan Forgiveness Case

The U.S. Education Department has withdrawn its appeals against federal court rulings that blocked new regulations. These rules would have allowed the education secretary to disqualify certain employers from the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program. This decision benefits 2.3 million borrowers, ensuring the controversial rule will not take effect and preserving their eligibility for loan forgiveness.
