CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/EDUCATION/STUDENT LOANS: “When you look at education, my administration has approved $13 billion for state and local education. We’ve approved over $6 billion to support colleges and another $6 billion in emergency grants to students, very importantly. We waived standardized testing requirements, deferred federal student loan and interest payments.
So you take a look at the student loan program — we’ve waived student loan and interest payments, and that is something that people haven’t been hearing about and nobody talks about it, but it’s a big deal.”
