Administrative Wage Garnishment

If you have had your wages garnished to repay a federal student loan, we want to hear from you. We know that borrowers across the country have had their wages illegally seized by Education Secretary Betsy DeVos. That’s why we have partnered with Student Defense and National Consumer Law Center to bring a new class action lawsuit against the Trump Administration.

As Americans face unprecedented economic and financial pressure, having wages seized can mean the difference between having enough money to pay rent or to put food on the table.

On March 25, 2020, the Trump administration announced that it would end wage garnishment for student loan borrowers, going back to March 13 and extending for at least 60 days. However, this process is not simple.
