Barring Student Loan Forgiveness for Individuals Arrested for Antisemitic Acts.

This bill aims to prohibit students arrested for engaging in antisemitic activities from receiving Federal student loan forgiveness under the IDR program. This means students facing such charges will lose significant financial relief, even if they are not ultimately convicted. The legislation also imposes strict reporting requirements on universities, threatening them with the loss of all federal funding if they fail to report incidents.
Key points
Students arrested for antisemitic activities are immediately disqualified from receiving federal student loan forgiveness (IDR program).
Disqualification applies upon arrest, regardless of whether the student is later convicted of the charges.
Universities that knowingly fail to report antisemitic incidents risk severe penalties, including the loss of all federal funding.
