A group of 180 national and state organizations urged President Biden to extend the student loan payment pause, which is set to expire in just under two months on Aug. 31, in a letter sent June 30.
The payment pause, which was first enacted in March 2020 and has since been extended multiple times, has kept millions of federal student loan borrowers from making payments on their loans during the pandemic. Biden has stated that he plans on canceling at least some student debt, however, he has yet to unveil a final proposal.
