The No Loan Forgiveness for Terrorists Act of 2025 would change the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program by preventing borrowers from having their federal student loans forgiven if they work for organizations engaged in substantial illegal activities. Specifically, the bill excludes employment with organizations that aid illegal immigration, materially support terrorism or designated terrorist organizations, support child abuse, practice illegal discrimination, or commit patterns of state-level crimes like trespassing or vandalism. The legislation would amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 to add these restrictions to the definition of "public service job" under the loan forgiveness program. The bill contains no specified funding requirements or implementation timeline and would affect current and future borrowers seeking loan forgiveness through public service employment. The legislation was introduced on June 4, 2025, and referred to the Committee on Education and Workforce.
