English/Español: Rubio Slams Student Debt Bailout, Offers Zero Interest Rate Alternative
President Joe Biden announced plans to forgive student loan debt––up to $20,000 per borrower––and another extension of the COVID-era pause on payment requirements, despite more than 10 million job openings across the country.
- “Forgiving student loan debt isn’t free. It means the 85 percent of Americans with no undergraduate debt from college will be carrying the burden for those that do. That is not a relief, it is an unfair burden to place on working families.
- “There are better ways to help borrowers with surging interest rates and staggering debt. My LOAN Act would increase transparency and eliminate interest rates in the federal student loan industry. Congress should pass it immediately.” – U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL)
Sen. Rubio’s LOAN Act would eliminate interest on federal student loans and replace it with a one-time, non-compounding origination fee paid back over the lifetime of the loan. Income-based repayment plans would also be the default.

RUBIO CRITICA AUXILIO DE DEUDA ESTUDIANTIL, OFRECE ALTERNATIVA DE TASA DE INTERÉS CERO
El presidente Joe Biden anunció planes para perdonar la deuda de préstamos estudiantiles, hasta de $20,000 dólares por prestatario. Biden también anunció otra extensión de la pausa de la era COVID en los requisitos de pago de los préstamos estudiantiles, a pesar que más de EE.UU. tiene más de 10 millones de puestos laborales disponibles en todo el país.

“Perdonar la deuda de los préstamos estudiantiles no es gratis. Significa que el 85 por ciento de los americanos sin deudas universitarias llevarán la carga de aquellos que sí tienen deudas. Eso no es un alivio, es una carga injusta para las familias trabajadoras.
-
“Hay mejores formas de ayudar a los prestatarios con las crecientes tasas y las impactantes deudas. Mi LOAN Act aumentaría la transparencia y eliminaría las tasas de interés en la industria federal de préstamos estudiantiles. El congreso de EE.UU. debería aprobarlo de inmediato”. – Senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL)
El proyecto de ley LOAN Act del senador Rubio eliminaría los intereses de los préstamos federales estudiantiles y los reemplazaría con un monto no compuesto que es pagado durante la vigencia del préstamo. Los planes de pago basados en los ingresos también serían los predeterminados.
