GOP Proposes Taxing College Scholarships to Fund Trump Tax Cuts
Republican lawmakers are exploring drastic higher education cuts to fund Trump-era tax cuts. Proposed changes include taxing scholarships, eliminating income-driven student loan repayment plans like SAVE, and significantly raising taxes on university endowments. These measures, currently under consideration in House committees, are sparking widespread concern over their potential impact on college affordability and accessibility. Higher education advocates argue that these actions are ideologically driven rather than a response to a budget crisis.
