End of Student Loan Payment Pause and Benefit Limitations

This bill aims to end the federal student loan payment pause that has been in effect since March 2020. It also limits the Secretary of Education's ability to implement future relief, meaning students and graduates can expect a return to regular payments and interest accrual.
Key points
The pause on federal student loan payments and interest accrual will end.
The Secretary of Education will no longer be able to suspend payments or cancel student debt for more than 30 days.
The act seeks to prevent further government-initiated student debt cancellation.
