        @SenGillibrand perhaps, charge interest just to cover administration costs of program.

        @SenGillibrand student loan balance is 5 times what was borrowed and no way to pay your way back out.

        @SenGillibrand since payments can only be made as full payments, after 6 mo you're headed for default & garnishment again

        @SenGillibrand after "cure" is over: you are presented with payments 1/3rd more than the ones you couldn't make before (interest/penalties)

        @SenGillibrand after loan goes to garnishment-if payment is "burdensome" then you go to "cure" (3 yrs of amt you can afford).

        @SenGillibrand do you know what happens when someone falls behind in payments? They add 30K to your balance, only accept payment in full.

        @SenGillibrand lower interest rate and repayment time but there should not be loan forgiveness. Resting your debt is right
