The Education Department said that student-loan borrowers will continue to receive aid under President Trump's temporary freeze on grants and loans.
The U.S. Department of Education has announced that student loan payments for millions of federal borrowers will continue despite a funding freeze proposed by former President Donald Trump. This decision comes in response to Trump's suggestion to halt funding for various federal programs, including student loan forgiveness initiatives. The Education Department clarified that the existing student loan repayment and forgiveness programs would remain unaffected by these proposed budget cuts.

The statement from the Department underscores the commitment to maintaining support for student loan borrowers amidst political changes.
