For-profit colleges in the United States have been criticised for depriving their students of a quality education and burying them in debt. Now, some Democrats hope to cut the institutions off from federal funding, writes Annie Nova for CNBC.
A bill introduced this month by Representative Pramila Jayapal (Washington) and Senator Sherrod Brown (Ohio), dubbed the ‘Students Not Profits Act of 2019’, would ban the US Department of Education from sending its federal grants and loans to for-profit colleges. “It’s time for taxpayers to stop subsidising the institutions that put hardworking students through this heart-breaking mess,” Jayapal said in a statement.
