Washington It's been five months since a federal court ordered Education Secretary Betsy DeVos to give defrauded student loan borrowers relief, but more than 100,000 people are still waiting to hear whether their debt will be canceled.
The Obama-era rule, known as Borrower Defense to Repayment, allows students who believe they were defrauded by their college to apply for loan forgiveness. The idea is that if they didn't get the education they were promised, they shouldn't have to pay back their debt. The number of these applications soared as the Obama administration cracked down on for-profit colleges.

DebtCrisisOrg Return bankruptcy rights to all student loans. Ask your congressman to cosponsor HR 770! HR770
DebtCrisisOrg She a slimy work of art.
This woman is a blight on education!
Poor rich woman so heartless sad 😡
HigherEdNotDebt This c*nt is a real life super villain.
She's useless and needs to go... asap!
If I’m ever president I’ll appoint people to agencies who value those agencies and who want to work toward improving them in order to benefit Americans. Imagine that. However, DeVos (who is against public education) was hired to run the agency in charge of public education.
realDonaldTrump Your incompetents at work!
She is incompetent.
Not moving fast enough for THE 'LYING' CNN! !
MrJonCryer They are taking the money from Special Olympics. That’s progress.
She’s probably going to show up in a few days/weeks saying something like “oops” or “look at my new boat and face-lift”.
Can we also have them remove the forgiveness deadline, my application was rejected by a one year window 👍
This woman is a bonafied one, she act like she has to pay the loan for them. Do your job without prejudice and judgement. Damn!
100,000? How many are illegals? How many are criminals? Will take time so soft out.
These students borrowed money to enroll in for-profit colleges. That is the chance they took. Not our fault they were defrauded.
Come on Betsy.... Don't be such a Tammy about it.
Because Devos could care less about schools that wouldn't benefit her donors...horrible Charter, religious and private schools that take public funding for wealthier students
This just proves 'There is one born every minute'
Like everyone else in the corrupt TrumpAdmininistration, BetsyDeVosED doesn't give a damn. ☹️ StudentLoans
The proper relief is to remove the protection of student loan debt in bankruptcy. The debt could then be put aside.
She is clueless Typical trump Appointee without any qualification except her husband is a billionaire and they hate Public Schools
Why should they get loans paid off? I had to pay mine🙃🙄
Here is a tip: She is incompetent and probably could care less
No student debit should be cancelled. However I do think something needs to be done. If you borrow money you need to pay it back.
She don’t care! She’s rich suckers! her and trump you really think I hey care about you.
This woman is frickin disgrace. This whole administration thinks they are above the law and it doesn't apply to them. They should be all thrown out when Trump is
Another Trump Billionaire That Was NOT Put There To Help Real People.
She should never have been put in office! She’s a disgrace
what does it take ? this administration has broken all mores' it has done nothing for the middle class, DeVos has never stepped foot in a public school EVER, NOR HER KIDS..this is UNBELIEVABLE ! this administration is unbelievable.
She's busy. Take a swim. In the swamp.
This is who you guys are sucking up to and carrying water for ? ..Good luck with that
And it's been 2 years of FakeNewsCNN telling lies to the American people about Russian collusion!
Good maybe the colleges should explain the job placement after college so students can make a responsible decision about how in debt they want to go. Free college has no value !!!! God CNN r u ever going to get it right?
Hilarious. Now pay the ppl who decided not to go Bc they couldn’t afford it?
Derrr,
unqualified swamp woman
ResignNow DeVos
Remember when president had fake university that scammed people out their money?
Another unqualified stooge from the Trump admin.
realDonaldTrump administration is above the law.
No more lectures for students like us 😉
