Restore federal loan access for graduate and professional students

Shomari Figures introduced the Restoring Opportunity for Advanced Education Act to reverse the student-loan limits imposed by H.R. 1 and restore the federal lending framework that existed before that law. The bill would repeal annual and total borrowing limits for graduate and professional students, remove H.R. 1’s lifetime federal borrowing cap, and restore Grad PLUS loans. Figures says the changes would make graduate and professional education a more realistic option for students who cannot pay its full cost up front.

Context: This is a proposed bill, not an enacted policy.
