Yes, I am hearing that in my State and around the country. What really strikes me about this bill--there are a lot of things that happen that we can't fix here in Congress, but this is something we can fix. Right now the Federal Government is charging people who try to get an education 6 percent, 8 percent, 10 percent, 12 percent, and even higher on student loans. We have a very straightforward bill that would bring the interest rate down, put money back in people's pockets, and give people who are just trying to get a fair shot a real opportunity to build an economic future.
