Trump moves to tie student loan repayment to earnings

Original: Trump ties student loans to earnings

Donald Trump is pushing a plan linking student loan repayment to borrowers' earnings, reshaping how millions of Americans would pay back federal debt. The proposal draws debate: supporters argue repayments should reflect what graduates actually earn, while critics warn it could extend debt periods and shift costs onto lower-income borrowers.

Why now: Student debt affects tens of millions of voters, so any change to repayment rules by Trump draws immediate political attention.
