I think this bill is not good. It says that schools can't keep your grades from you if you used Post-9/11 help to pay for school. I don't like this because I think schools should be able to hold your grades if you owe them money. It's not fair to the school if you don't pay what you owe. This bill might make it harder for schools to get their money back. I don't think that's right. I don't benefit from this bill at all.

I don't think this bill is a good idea. It could cause problems for students who rely on Post-9/11 educational assistance. How will this affect me and others like me who have used this assistance for our education?
