Sign the Petition to Stop the Student Loan Tax

We, the undersigned citizens of the United States of America, oppose Ted Kennedy’s MASSIVE Student Loan Cost Increase.

• Ted Kennedy’s Higher Education Proposal fails to address rising costs of a college education
• Ted Kennedy’s Higher Education Proposal steals the interest rate reductions from the majority of students
• Ted Kennedy’s Higher Education Proposal robs students of superior customer service in favor of the Soviet Style-Government run program.
• Ted Kennedy’s Higher Education Proposal cheats students out of discounts and incentives from lenders
• Ted Kennedy’s Higher Education Proposal forces schools to leave the FFELP program in favor of the federal government run program.
• Ted Kennedy’s Higher Education Proposal eliminates students’ right to choose their own lender
• Ted Kennedy’s Higher Education Proposal props up a failing program—the Direct Lending Program has actually lost taxpayer money every year since 1997, totaling $16 billion

You CAN Fight these anticompetitive anti-student borrower proposals and tell Ted Kennedy he is just plain wrong!
