Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued the following statement after the House voted 253 to 171 this afternoon to pass the Student Aid and Fiscal Responsibility Act:

 

Education is the best investment individuals can make in themselves, it is the best investment parents can make in their children, and it is the best investment a nation can make in their citizens. With that in mind, today the House passed the Student Aid and Fiscal Responsibility Act, the single largest investment in making college more affordable in the history of our nation.

 

“This legislation means that more students will enter college; that they will graduate with less debt; that the federal loan initiatives that they and their families depend upon are strengthened for decades to come; and that taxpayers will save money. It is fiscally responsible, following the strict standards of pay-as-you-go spending.

 

“This legislation seizes the opportunity to strengthen our nation by making a historic commitment to our students and a landmark investment in our future.
