Foxx Wants to Fight Student Loan Debt Scammers With Cardona
House Education and the Workforce Chair Virginia Foxx is urging the Education Department to work together on making sure student loan borrowers don’t get taken advantage of as repayment is underway. Foxx (R-N.C.), in a letter sent to Education Secretary Miguel Cardona on Tuesday, wrote the student loan system is complicated for families to navigate, which could make them vulnerable to companies running scams. The companies have been known to be “aggressive,” Foxx said, and use tactics to pressure borrowers into schemes.
