Karoline Leavitt announced the resumption of federal student loan repayments in May. Initially paused under Trump in March 2020 due to COVID, repayment was extended by the Biden administration despite congressional mandates. Biden’s attempts to forgive loans via executive orders were repeatedly invalidated by courts, including the Supreme Court. Leavitt confirmed that collection for defaulted loans will resume on May 5. The Department of Education noted that 42.7 million Americans owe over $1.6 trillion in student loans, ending the pandemic-era pause and the Biden administration’s efforts to relieve student debt.
