The current administration is proposing a bill that would limit the amount that people pursuing “non professional” degrees, like nursing, can borrow in loans. This would make already medically deficient areas worse. Nurses are often one of the only caregivers in rural areas, and this bill would discourage people from pursuing the profession. Without this crucial support, the rural healthcare system could face even more strain than already present.
my daughter is trying to get through nursing school and this bill is just stupid. they work harder than anyone i know.
