Congress is considering blocking a new Department of Education rule about federal student loans, which would overturn the rule if approved. The resolution would prevent changes the Education Department made to how the Direct Loan Program operates, affecting millions of student borrowers and how they repay their loans. If passed, the rule would be canceled and the previous version would remain in effect.
