Federal Student Aid Cut for Convictions of Assaulting Police or Rioting.

This bill aims to terminate federal financial aid (grants, loans, work assistance) for individuals convicted of assaulting a police officer or crimes related to rioting. Crucially, any federal grants previously received by the convicted student will be converted into unsubsidized loans that must be repaid with interest, and they will not qualify for any loan forgiveness programs. This directly impacts the financial obligations of students convicted of these specific offenses.
Key points
Individuals convicted of assaulting a police officer or offenses related to rioting lose eligibility for future federal student financial aid (Title IV).
Existing federal grants received by the student are converted into non-forgivable loans that must be repaid, with interest accruing from the date the grant was awarded.
