Bill > HR8283

This bill, the Federal Employee Student Debt Transparency Act, amends the Ethics in Government Act of 1978 to require federal employees in the Senior Executive Service (SES) and Schedule C positions to disclose their outstanding federal student loan debt, including the principal and interest owed. The bill mandates that these "covered employees" file annual reports with the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) detailing their federal student loan debts. The OGE is then required to transmit a report to Congress with the total amount owed by all covered employees and the names of any who failed to report their information.
