Teachers' Union Sues, Alleging Education Dept. Reversed Earned PSLF Credit

The American Federation of Teachers sued Trump administration officials on October 30, 2026, alleging the Education Department reversed Public Service Loan Forgiveness credit borrowers had already earned and denied relief under the Biden-era PSLF Buyback program. The complaint asks the court to order the department to comply with the law. The department says PSLF processing has resumed after a pause.
