One stepfather called out the Biden administration's 'inexcusable' rollout of the new FAFSA application, arguing the delays have caused a 'lot of stress' for his child.

A stepfather impacted by the Biden administration's rollout of a new federal student loan application spoke out against the implementation that has left his family, and many others, in financial limbo for months. Harry Jackson, whose stepson was accepted to Purdue University, joined 'America's Newsroom' to discuss how the botched Free Application for Federal Student Aid implementation has affected his family.

It's agonizing. It's a lot of stress,' Jackson told Dana Perino on Monday. 'Typically, when you have your high school graduation is a period of elation. You're able to celebrate with your classmates where you're going to go... and not being able to... and not having to know where you're going to go, to know what options are available, what... your future holds for you. This is inexcusable.
