Bill Summary

JOINT RESOLUTION Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Education relating to ‘‘Waivers and Modifications of Federal Student Loans’’.

AI Summary

This Joint Resolution formally disapproves a rule proposed by the Department of Education concerning "Waivers and Modifications of Federal Student Loans," which includes a one-time debt relief initiative announced on a website and detailed in a Federal Register document from October 12, 2022. This disapproval is enacted under Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the United States Code, known as the Congressional Review Act, which allows Congress to overturn regulations issued by federal agencies. The resolution also references a Government Accountability Office (GAO) opinion from March 17, 2023, confirming that these waivers and modifications are indeed considered a rule under this act. Consequently, the rule will have no legal effect.
