The House-passed Smarter Solutions for Students Act accomplishes several goals shared by both the president and Republicans. It stops student loan interest rates from doubling in July. It’s a market-based solution that gets politicians out of the business of setting interest rates. And it is a “long-term fix” for the student loan program that is fairer for students, borrowers, and taxpayers.
