These comments, submitted on behalf of organizations across the country that provide free legal assistance to low-income student loan borrowers, address the Department’s proposed changes to regulations previously promulgated to protect federal student loan borrowers and taxpayers from misconduct and closures by schools. We urge the Department to change course, as the proposed rules would effectively terminate the borrower defense program, leave defrauded and misled students without recourse, and encourage the growth of predatory programs that harm students and taxpayers alike.
