Federal Employee Student Debt Transparency Act
This bill requires certain high-level federal employees - including Senior Executive Service (SES) members and presidentially appointed policy roles - to publicly disclose their federal student loan balances. Covered employees must report all outstanding principal and interest on loans under the Higher Education Act annually, within 60 days of taking the position, or by February 28 each year. The Office of Government Ethics will compile these reports and submit an annual summary to Congress, including total debt owed and any employees who failed to comply. The bill does not change student loan terms or provide debt relief - it solely mandates transparency about federal employees' student debt.
