Plain-English Summary

Congress would reject new federal student loan rules that the Department of Education created to change how the student loan program works. The rejection would prevent these regulations from taking effect, keeping the current student loan system in place instead of allowing the Education Department's changes to go forward. This would affect millions of student loan borrowers and the federal government's management of its lending programs.
