Walberg Statement on the Gainful Employment Rule

January 25, 2013

This week Congressman Tim Walberg released the following statement on the Gainful Employment Rule:

"I am deeply troubled by the news of the Gainful Employment rule. We don’t need additional red tape that hurts the ability of millions of people to attend college and learn new skills in the next decade. Despite making my opposition known in a letter to the President and through amendment, the Administration has chosen to ignore Congress and move forward with this regulation. Unfortunately this time it will be to the detriment of many low-income students who need it the most."
