Republicans in Congress agreed to cap the government direct lending program at 10 percent of all student loans, a move critics say will favor bankers and affect about 1.9 million students. The deal aims to save 1.6 billion dollars over seven years as part of a budget plan through 2002. Nancy Kassebaum urged caution, noting the program should not replace guaranteed bank loans and urging evaluation before expansion.
