The Citizens Must Act. We are a grass roots group seeking the swift return of standard bankruptcy protections and other consumer protections to all student loans in the U.S.   If you are a distressed borrower of any age, please use this site to tell your story, learn about the problem, meet others with similar situations, and above all, to take the actions necessary to compel Congress to serve the interests of the students and their families, at long last, and restore fairness to what has become a state-sponsored  predatory, and inflationary lending system.   Start Here
