Biden Does NOT need a BILL to close the border
He only needs a PEN. Thats all he needed to open it.

President Donald Trump signed a memo to automatically discharge federal student loan debt for permanently and totally disabled veterans during his visit to Louisville Wednesday, where he addressed more than 1,000 veterans.
"I have taken executive action to make sure our wounded warriors are not saddled with mountains of student debt," Trump told a crowd the Galt House, vowing to eliminate “every penny” of an average of $30,000 of student loan debt for about 25,000 disabled veterans.
Such veterans were already entitled to such debt forgiveness by law. But about half of the roughly 50,000 disabled veterans who are qualified to have their federal student loan debt forgiven have not received the benefit because of an application process that has proven burdensome, the administration said.
The memo directs the government to develop an “expedited” process, which the Department of Education said would mean loans are forgiven unless veterans opt out.
Trump’s speech at the 75th national convention of AMVETS, a major U.S. veterans’ organization, was part of a daylong visit to Louisville that also included a fundraiser for Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin’s reelection bid.

Wvit says no matter how many limbs you lose defending your country you should still be forced to pay back student loans with interest!

Wvit hates disabled veterans and veterans in general!

That's the least a grateful nation can do to thank them for their service.

This program of discharging student loan debts for disabled vets was begun under Obama.   GO OBAMA !!!!!!!




The Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended by the Higher Education Opportunity Act in 2008 and other acts (Higher Education Act), honors veterans who are totally and permanently disabled as a result of their service to the Nation by providing for the discharge of their Federal student loan debt.  Borrowers who have been determined by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to be unemployable due to a service-connected condition and who provide documentation of that determination to the Secretary of Education are entitled to the discharge of such debt.

For the last decade, veterans seeking loan discharges have been required to submit an application to the Secretary of Education with proof of their disabilities obtained from the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Considering how tRump is screwing over most vets this is the least he could do, making sure Obama's program worked like it was supposed to.
