students that are using perkins loan program.. could be a blow to them under the new legislation, that low cost federal student loan program.. would be expanded to include three times more colleges... but.. the downside.. is that students may not be able to defer the interest on those loans. students who had program before might not have the the money availale to them and they are taking away subsidy portion... students accrue interset while they are in school paula luff.. grades the overall reform effort a "b" - but it seems many students are ready for even the smallest changes to the current system. i think it's confusing.. in the end students are hurt.. and drop out. the money isn't there at home.. can't get loans at banks... so many things wied conundrum the house of representatives has already passed its version of the student aid and fiscal responsibility act of 2009 - another version is in the process of being drafted in the senate... no word yet on when the senate could vote on its proposal. while there are several version

strengthens the perkins loan program that provides low cost loans to students. it keeps interest rates low for those who have federal student loans. this is very important. that means that more students will enter clemming -- that they will graduate with less debt and that the federal loan initiatives that they and their families depend upon are strengthened for decades to come and on top of all the that, taxpayers will save money. under mr. miller's leadership, we are investing in our children without heaping mountains of debt upon them. this legislation is fiscally responsible. following the strict standards of the pay-as-you-go spending and saving for the taxpayer. you heard all the things i said about pell grants and college investments and perkins loans and interest rates low. with the $87 billion in tax payer savings that this bill -- taxpayer savings that this bill achieves, we are able to do all of that by switching to a direct loan program. so it invests $77 billion back into the education of our people while reducing the federal entitlement spending by
