Issues: Finance and Banking

United States Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) released the following statement on the resignation of Federal Student Aid (FSA) Chief Operating Officer Major General Mark Brown:

"Whether it was incompetence, malice, or a mix of both, the Department of Education's student loan bank under Betsy DeVos was a disaster and oversaw the illegal garnishment of the wages of thousands of struggling borrowers during the pandemic. The resignation of FSA Chief Operating Officer Major General Mark Brown is good for American borrowers. Students deserve leadership at this office who will follow the law and make this program work for students and I look forward to working with Secretary Cardona to reform the FSA so that it works for student borrowers instead of big student loan servicing corporations."
