S.1845: If It's Good Enough For the Banks, It's Good Enough For Students Act

Overview

S. 1845 would allow federal student borrowers to refinance their loans at the same rate banks can borrow from the Federal Reserve, substantially lower than the current statuary federal student loan rate. The bill would also require the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and Department of Education to implement a campaign to inform eligible borrowers about loan refinancing.
