(NationalSentinel) President Donald Trump will further ingratiate himself to America’s military veterans when he signs an executive order Wednesday wiping out all student loan debt for thousands who have been disabled in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The action will be announced during a speech at the 75th annual American Veterans convention in Louisville, Ky., where he flew earlier today. The order directs the Department of Education to eliminate “every penny” of student loan debt for veterans who have been rated 100 percent disabled.
Currently, The Washington Times reports, there are some 40,000 vets nationwide who qualify for student loan debt forgiveness under actions taken by the Departments of Education and Veterans Affairs last year.
