Were grawded and defrauded and relieved of some of all of our student debt. 220,000 student borrowers are waiting for betsy devos to do something but they havent done anything except for them having to be harder to prove it. Each of these students are supposed to get their own lawyer, their own investigator and prove the fraud. Is that reasonable for a young student carrying a student debt whos been defrauded to have that responsibility . Secretary devos thinks yes. I think no. And thats what this vote is all about. Who agrees about my with my position on this issue . Most of the advocates for students, but also the Veterans Organization across america led by the american legion. They are supporting our effort now, under this congressional review act, to do away with the new education secretary rule. They say it is unfair to veterans and it is it and unfair to student borrowers. Bill oxford called the rule that were going to get a chance to rule on after the debate fundamentally rigged

What are you moving . This matter has been called up together. Its usually one vote for both items. But if theres a preference to take up the matter separately, we can do that. Commissioner moore. So for the benefit of commissioner diamond not having participated in the many years that we are trying to struggle with impacts of the slightly wronglyscaled and conditioned development on the mission, this particular commission has taken a very, very specific stand on trying to avoid any further negative and decimating impacts on that. And our discus
