Relates to requiring new employees to be provided certain information relating to student loan repayment information

S 1673 requires employers in New York to provide new employees with information about student loan repayment options when hiring for entry-level positions requiring an associate's degree or higher, including post-graduate internships. The bill mandates that employers distribute materials developed by state agencies covering federal repayment plans (like income-based options), loan consolidation, and public service forgiveness programs, plus links to the Department of Financial Services' student lending resources. It directly affects new hires in qualifying roles and all employers in the state, including public employers who must additionally detail public service forgiveness programs. The law does not change loan terms but ensures new employees receive clear, accessible guidance on managing student debt. The bill passed the Senate in March 2025 and is now in the Assembly.
