The Trump regime wants to bar people who speak critically against its policies from the federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, which is just awful politics that your fake religious mother-in-law of course thinks is totally kosher.
Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones doesn’t agree with her.
“It is not only illegal, but cruel, to pull the rug out from under our dedicated public servants who have been diligently repaying their student loans year after year with the promise of relief through loan forgiveness. This is yet another example of the president’s continued attack on public servants, jeopardizing their financial stability and raising costs. As attorney general, I will always fight to protect our workers and keep costs low,” said Jones, who has joined a multistate lawsuit to protect Virginians from being illegally excluded from the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program.
That program, initiated in 2007, created a path forward for public servants – we’re talking about teachers, nurses, police officers, social workers – to have their loan balances forgiven after 10 years of successful payment.
The Trump regime, last fall, adopted what is called a “final rule” to exclude employers that it considers to be engaging in “illegal activities.”
According to the rule, these activities include:
- “Aiding and abetting violations of Federal immigration laws.”
- “Supporting terrorism or engaging in violence for the purpose of obstructing or influencing Federal Government policy.”
- “Engaging in the chemical and surgical castration or mutilation of children in violation of Federal or state law.”
- “Engaging in the trafficking of children to another State for purposes of emancipation from their lawful parents in violation of Federal or State law.”
- “Engaging in a pattern of aiding and abetting illegal discrimination, and engaging in a pattern of violating State laws.”
It’s not hard to see the issues here.
“Aiding and abetting violations of Federal immigration laws” could be, and is being, interpreted as simply standing up to the regime’s mass roundup of brown-skinned people.
The “supporting terrorism” nonsense, similar.
The claptrap about “mutilation of children” is gender-affirming healthcare for trans folks.
Not sure where the “emancipation” issue would apply; who does that?
“Aiding and abetting illegal discrimination” – they mean against White folks, obviously; because they’re perfectly fine with discrimination against People of Color, LGBTQ+, women, liberals.
This policy is “limited government” enforcing the new political correctness.
Your mother-in-law would spontaneously combust if the next Democratic administration took away her Social Security because of her Facebook posts about illegal immigrant trans swimmers finishing in sixth place at a YMCA meet.
