Students like Samuel and moms like Tera are why I come to work every day. We cannot rest until ALL students have the freedom to learn in the ways and places that help them reach their full potential. 2/2 — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations on getting the #FUTUREAct signed into law today, @SenAlexander! It’s been an honor to work alongside you to make #FAFSA simplification and consistent #HBCU #MSI funding a reality for the students we serve. 5/5 — PolitiTweet.org

Grateful to @POTUS for signing the #FUTUREAct and for his continued commitment to making sure all students, no matter their stage in life, have the opportunity to pursue the higher education pathway that works best for them. 4/5 — PolitiTweet.org

The #FUTUREAct makes applying for and receiving federal student aid easier, faster, and more secure than ever before by: ✅ Eliminating up to 22 questions on the FAFSA form ✅ Reducing burdensome verification paperwork for students 2/5 https://t.co/GVBqKgkDYP — PolitiTweet.org

It was an honor to join @SenAlexander, @virginiafoxx, and other Congressional leaders to celebrate the #FUTUREAct becoming law. This bill simplifies the #FAFSA and provides consistent funding for #HBCUs and Minority Serving Institutions. THREAD 1/5 ⬇️ https://t.co/rPJN4P2lsv — PolitiTweet.org

Federal Student Aid’s mission is to serve students and their families, but its structure is set up to serve politicians and their policies. One has to wonder: why isn’t FSA a standalone government corporation, run by a professional, expert, and apolitical Board of Governors? https://t.co/E7cq91TtTm — PolitiTweet.org
Secretary Betsy DeVos @BetsyDeVosED
America's antiquated approach to education fails too many students. We must reject the idea that one-size-fits-all education solutions have any place in today’s world. What we really need is a transformational change. We need #EducationFreedom. https://t.co/qD1SvWHAnz — PolitiTweet.org

Congress might have created the first financial aid program, but it set in motion an untamed beast. Federal Student Aid simply cannot satisfy the ever-changing political whims of Washington. In its current form—which no one likely ever imagined—it cannot fulfill its mission. https://t.co/9eyZfUIWGK — PolitiTweet.org

If the Federal government is going to monopolize student lending, then it must provide services on par with world class financial firms. And that starts with acting like a world-class financial firm. One that is truly independent from interference, political or otherwise. https://t.co/88i96RIjMA — PolitiTweet.org
Secretary Betsy DeVos @BetsyDeVosED
Since the Federal government inserted itself everywhere in student lending, everything has become more cumbersome and more confusing for everyone. It’s time to renew our commitment to each and every student’s success and transform Federal Student Aid. https://t.co/somLuZUJgp — PolitiTweet.org

#TBT to the school choice roundtable at the @WhiteHouse this week where we heard some incredible student stories about how their lives were changed by #SchoolChoice.

Secretary Betsy DeVos @BetsyDeVosED
Ultimately, what @usedgov wants, what I want, & what taxpayers deserve, is to provide fair relief to all those borrowers who actually have been harmed. That's what the law requires, that's what was intended by the borrower defense to repayment law, & that’s what we're doing. 7/7 — PolitiTweet.org
Secretary Betsy DeVos @BetsyDeVosED
Yes, there is a backlog of borrower defense claims at Federal Student Aid. To say that I am frustrated by that is an understatement. But rather than focus on why there is a backlog, too many have instead focused on creating more chaos and a circus-like atmosphere. 6/7 — PolitiTweet.org
Secretary Betsy DeVos @BetsyDeVosED
I recently approved a new methodology that relies on publicly available 2017 Gainful Employment earnings data, Social Security Administration earnings, College Scorecard data, and IRS information to determine harm and calculate student loan relief. https://t.co/NIeMOEl54x 5/7 — PolitiTweet.org
Secretary Betsy DeVos @BetsyDeVosED
Then the Obama Administration weaponized the regulation against schools it simply didn’t like. They applied the law in a discriminatory fashion. So, since 2015 there has been a 5,000% increase in borrower defense claims. 4/7 https://t.co/m14PUwgjZO — PolitiTweet.org
Secretary Betsy DeVos @BetsyDeVosED
When “borrower defense” arrived in 1995, it was a regulation in the Higher Education Act that was little known and little used. In fact, in the 20 years from 1995 to 2015, fewer than 60 claims were filed. 3/7 — PolitiTweet.org
Secretary Betsy DeVos @BetsyDeVosED
But if claims are false, or students did not suffer financial harm, then hardworking taxpayers should not have to pay somebody else’s student loans too. Simply discharging all of these loans is not fair to taxpayers nor to those who have paid or are paying their loans. 2/7 — PolitiTweet.org
Secretary Betsy DeVos @BetsyDeVosED
Some thoughts from the Borrower Defense hearing happening this morning: Students are my number one priority. They are why I come to work every day. So, if students have been deceived by institutions and suffered financial harm as a result, they should be made whole. 1/7 — PolitiTweet.org
