Not to interject, but that orders looks suspiciously like an attempt to disqualify teachers from the loan forgiveness plan.  

It would disqualify literally everyone that would have qualified for forgiveness based on going into and continuously serving in any public service but especially teachers because who needs an educated populace?

what does this mean for you? 

i'm private sector, so for this particular change technically nothing. but folks in my cohort who went in that direction are at or nearing that ten-year mark.

but to extent that i'm in that broader student loan bucket generally and paying attention, it's just infuriating the absolute contempt these people have for kids who were told all their lives to stay in school and then were promised that if they sacrifice earning potential to work in the public sector for a decade, that debt would be wiped clean.

the PSLF stuff in particular is just mean, cruel, spiteful, and terrible all around.
