On July 1st, federal student loans interest rates will double from 3.4% to 6.8%. Senator Elizabeth Warren has introduced a common sense plan to prevent this from happening.
Her bill, the Bank on Student Loans Fairness Act, would set the federal student loans interest rate at .75% the same rate big banks can use to borrow money from the Fed.
Senator Warren needs your help to gather support for this bill and to prevent student loans from doubling.

That being said, I support Senator Warren's efforts. One of my senators is already on board, and to my delight, She Who Must be Obeyed just informed me she already sent a strongly worded message to our other senator.
