House OKs technical changes to education loan forgiveness programs and labor agreements
The House voted 127-4 Sunday night to add clarifying language and make technical changes to higher education loan forgiveness programs and certain labor agreements.
Sponsored by Rep. Bud Nornes (R-Fergus Falls) and Senate President Michelle Fischbach (R-Paynesville), HF3051/SF3062* would make technical and clarifying changes to the aviation, teacher shortage, agricultural educators and large animal veterinarian loan forgiveness programs.
