Making College Affordable
The House held a debate on making college affordable, focused on student loans. Representative Janelle Bynum, a Democrat, spoke about the burden of college debt, saying monthly payments should be calculated in a way that stops interest from piling up, and that loan plans should let borrowers pay off their debt in less than 30 years. She noted that the House had been spending its time on other matters, such as daylight saving time, rather than on financing higher education.
