The Biden administration has announced the cancellation of $4.5 billion in student debt for over 60,000 public service workers. This move marks a significant milestone in President Biden's ongoing effort to provide student loan relief, with the total number of public servants who have received loan forgiveness now exceeding 1 million. Despite this progress, broader relief efforts remain blocked in court, according to the White House.
