But the past couple of weeks have seen judges strike back against many of the student loan initiatives. Learn how a federal judge in Texas struck down the entire student loan cancellation program, how borrowers can benefit from some of the options still out there for student loans, and student loan changes we might see in 2023.

In today's episode, you'll find out:

  • How a federal judge in Texas struck down the entire student loan cancellation program
