Summary

This joint resolution nullifies a rule issued by the Department of Education (ED) on September 23, 2019. The rule revised the process for a student loan borrower to obtain a discharge from a student loan if an institution of education misrepresented a material fact.

However, under the previous 2016 rule, an application could be submitted on behalf of an entire group (e.g., veterans).
