John Kline: “I hope that we will be able to work out a long-term bipartisan support for student loan activity.”

Republicans and Democrats have a history of bipartisan cooperation on this issue.

Composite plans are not intended to replace defined benefit plans, but are intended to be an alternative to the 401(k) defined contribution plan.

We owe it to them to set aside our political differences and come to the table to find a bipartisan solution that secures their future.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I thank the witnesses for being with us today. Excellent testimony, as we're trying to solve the problem that some of us have been dealing with for a long time.
