U.S. Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Todd Young (R-IN) reintroduced the ISA Student Protection Act. The bill would create a framework for Income Share Agreements (ISAs), an innovative financing tool for students who are pursuing postsecondary education or training. It would also create consumer protections to improve their effectiveness – protecting students and ensuring their success in the workforce.
ISAs are an innovative and affordable way for students to finance their education based on their future income without going into debt. Under an ISA, a student agrees to pay a percentage of their income over a given time period in exchange for payments for tuition and expenses from nongovernmental sources. When the agreed timeframe ends, the student stops payments regardless of whether the initial amount was paid back to the ISA funder.
Rubio and Young first introduced the legislation in July 2019.
Senators Warner (D-VA) and Coons (D-DE) are also cosponsors.
This legislation is supported by Jobs for the Future, the Invest in Student Advancement Alliance, Student Freedom Initiative, the San Diego Workforce Partnership, FreeWorld, Better Future Forward, Purdue University, and more.
