With no regard for American taxpayers, Democrats churned out student loan forgiveness plans in an attempt to sway voters. Those irresponsible and shortsighted policies end today.

Criminals are getting rich off your tax dollars—exploiting federal student loan programs and stealing money from students, borrowers, and the American people. @EdSecMcMahon tells @RepJamesComer that the solution was simple: a photo ID. That one simple change is now helping @usedgov root out waste, fraud, and abuse in our federal student loan programs.

Spoke @AEI yesterday with @DrBethAkers about why accountability in higher education is crucial. Students deserve programs that truly deliver economic value for the investment they and taxpayers make.

The Trump Administration has zero tolerance for fraud. In partnership with @WHFraudTF, @usedgov has prevented more than $60 million from falling into the pockets of fraudsters.

Scoop: The Trump administration has blocked $60 million in fraudulent student loan applications since launching a new risk assessment tool last month, admin officials tell @DailyCaller. There were about 300,000 fraudulent applications.

This is what the Trump Administration has been calling for in higher education since Day One. I hope Harvard leadership sees what the students clearly do: the institution needs to refocus on truth seeking, merit, and academic rigor. thecrimson.com/article/2026/4…

I was honored to attend the @LibertyU reception last month to share remarks with students, donors, alumni, and administration leaders about our various higher education priorities. The Department appreciates Liberty's partnership and their commitment to a high quality education and emphasis on student success.

The Trump Admin is focused on putting students and taxpayers first, which is why we are implementing durable policies to make higher education more affordable. This final rule will help ensure students can access higher education without racking up excessive loan debt, offer repayment options that better serve borrowers, and force institutions to reduce costs.

We’re kicking off National Apprenticeship Week at @USDOL. Since @POTUS took office, more than 380,000 new apprentices have been added nationwide. The Trump Administration is committed to Making America Skilled Again, and that’s why we’re opening more doors for Americans to learn a skill, master a trade, and build careers they can be proud of.

Last week in Dallas, I spoke with NASASPS about efforts to improve and modernize accreditation. As we return education to the states and ensure institutions serve students and families, strengthening accreditation is key. Through actions already taken, ongoing rulemaking, and continued reforms, we’re working to make higher education more transparent, affordable, and accountable.

Enjoyed my visit to @UT_Dallas, where innovation is front and center. I had the chance to learn more about their cutting‑edge work in artificial intelligence, see firsthand how they’re preparing students for America’s growing semiconductor manufacturing industry, and hear about their efforts to strengthen and modernize accreditation so programs stay aligned with workforce needs.

If postsecondary education programs do not leave graduates better off, taxpayers should not subsidize them. @usedgov's proposed accountability framework will drive meaningful change, ending years of regulatory whiplash & addressing student debt that has left students worse off.
