We’ve previously urged state Attorneys General to investigate MOHELA and pursue action to the fullest extent possible under the law, and reports of these new investigations are an important step toward making right by our nation’s student loan borrowers — especially as the Trump Administration abandons and penalizes them. Americans deserve better than MOHELA’s failures.”
