                  STUDENT-LOAN BORROWER BILL OF RIGHTS

  (Mr. CLARKE of Michigan asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CLARKE of Michigan. Mr. Speaker, I'm speaking directly to the 
American people today, to all families who are burdened by student-loan 
debt. A solution is on the way. I am working on bills that will 
responsibly forgive certain student loans and provide every student-
loan borrower with basic consumer protections by enacting a student-
loan borrower bill of rights.
  I urge every Member of Congress to help our American families get out 
of this debt so they can live better lives and create jobs for America.
