The Biden administration has forgiven $5.8 billion in student debt for 77,700 public service workers, such as teachers, nurses, and firefighters. This is part of a larger effort to address issues with the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, which has faced administrative hurdles in the past. Additionally, President Biden will notify 380,000 public service workers that they'll be eligible for debt forgiveness within two years if they continue to meet program requirements.
