No Student Loans for Campus Criminals Act

Bill 119 s 937, also known as the "Protestor Student Loan Eligibility Act," aims to establish that individuals who are convicted of any offense related to their conduct during a protest at an institution of higher education will be ineligible to receive Federal student loans. This bill also prohibits these individuals from receiving forgiveness, cancellation, waiver, or modification of certain Federal student loans.

The bill is designed to address concerns about the potential misuse of Federal student loan funds by individuals who engage in disruptive or unlawful behavior during protests on college campuses. By denying these individuals access to Federal student loans, the bill seeks to discourage disruptive behavior and ensure that taxpayer-funded student loan programs are used responsibly.

If passed, Bill 119 s 937 would have significant implications for individuals who participate in protests at colleges and universities. It would serve as a deterrent for those considering engaging in disruptive behavior during protests, as they would risk losing access to Federal student loan assistance. Overall, the "Protestor Student Loan Eligibility Act" is a controversial piece of legislation that raises questions about the balance between free speech rights and responsible use of Federal student loan funds. Supporters argue that it is necessary to protect the integrity of student loan programs, while critics raise concerns about potential infringement on individuals' rights to protest.
