Louisiana Senate considers student loan plan overhaul
The Senate debated a bill creating a state guaranteed student loan program with 90 percent bank backing to replace the existing scholarship system. It would cap loans at 1,000 per year, require a six-member commission, and bear interest up to 5 percent paid by the state. The measure, supported by Sen. Michael O’Keefe, faced House amendments and opposition over potential effects on funds for the poor.
