"The Governor's loan re-payment proposal is a truly creative approach toward tackling the student loan indebtedness problem and will help put New York in the lead in developing an educated and highly skilled workforce.  I have just put out a think piece – a “reflection" -- on the topics of cost, access and affordability, and in it I call for a number of creative ways to reduce the loan burden for students while allowing them to choose a college or university that best matches their talents and can maximize their overall potential.  I applaud the Governor for his foresight and I am hopeful the legislature gives it full consideration."
