We applaud Chairman Miller for introducing an education bill
that puts students first. This
legislation takes seriously the challenges students face paying for college and
responds with a substantial commitment to college access and affordability. The House should move quickly to pass this
bill.

in 1994 to secure more aid for students, with a focus on additional grants,
reduced debt, and better service to students in the federal financial aid
system.
