The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau said Thursday it was requesting public comment on the best ways for Congress to help struggling student loan borrowers. The CFPB released a formal request for information asking for input on several issues, including the impact of student debt on the economy and how it hinders access to mortgages and auto loans; how distressed borrowers manage their debt obligations; lower monthly payment options that exist for student loan borrowers; and other alternative payment options that could be applied to the student loan market. The agency will accept comments through its Web site until April 8.
