Judge Blocks Trump Administration's Rule on Student Loan Forgiveness Eligibility

U.S. District Judge Myong Joun blocked a Trump administration rule that would disqualify public service workers from loan forgiveness based on their employers' alleged illegal purposes.
The judge sided with Democratic-led states and non-profits, arguing the rule could target organizations supporting immigration rights and transgender healthcare.
The ruling comes as part of ongoing legal challenges against the Trump administration's changes to the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program.
