Pennsylvania State Resolution
Pennsylvania State Representative John Pallone recently announced a resolution in the Pennslylvania House that would encourage Congress to revisit the issue of consolidating student debt more than once in the repayment lifetime. In this September 18, 2003 press release Pallone was quoted as saying, "The financial burden that students carry immediately upon leaving college is incredibly large and difficult to manage for someone just starting out in their career... The burden is even more problematic for lower-income loan holders as well as for any student who receives an advanced degree.î
