AFT对DOE提起诉讼,要求根据延迟偿还计划,强制对符合条件的借款人免除学生贷款。 AFT sues DOE to force student loan forgiveness for eligible borrowers under delayed repayment plans.

美国教师联合会(AFT)起诉美国教育部,敦促一名联邦法官迫使该机构恢复对符合条件的借款人的学生贷款豁免。 The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) has sued the U.S. Department of Education, urging a federal judge to compel the agency to resume student loan forgiveness for eligible borrowers. AFT认为,尽管满足了要求,该部仍在非法拖延取消那些以收入为驱动的还款计划和公共服务贷款豁免债务的人的债务。 The AFT argues the department is unlawfully delaying debt cancellation for those on income-driven repayment plans and Public Service Loan Forgiveness, despite meeting requirements. 该诉讼寻求一项禁令,以便根据诸如IBR、ICR和PAYE等计划,在支付20年或25年之后执行豁免,并处理数千份积压的PSLF申请。 The lawsuit seeks an injunction to enforce forgiveness under plans like IBR, ICR, and PAYE after 20 or 25 years of payments and to process thousands of backlogged PSLF applications. 教育部援引关于SAVE计划和联邦法院行动的法律不确定性作为拖延的理由,尽管没有规定恢复宽恕的时限。 The Education Department cites legal uncertainty around the SAVE plan and federal court actions as reasons for delays, though no timeline has been provided for resuming forgiveness. 《美国援救计划》对取消贷款的免税待遇将于2026年1月1日到期, The American Rescue Plan’s tax-free treatment of loan cancellation expires January 1, 2026, adding urgency.
