Conviction on Campus Blocks Public Service Student Loan Forgiveness.

This bill introduces a new restriction for individuals seeking the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program.

This means public sector workers who commit such an offense will be required to repay the full amount of their student loans.
