The Department of Education is implementing updated identification standards for first-time Federal Student Aid borrowers to safeguard the program against fraud.

The department stated that, in recent years, less than one percent of students who applied for federal financial aid were required to verify their identity.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon oversaw a comprehensive review of federal student aid programs to ensure loans are granted responsibly.

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

• For discernment for Secretary McMahon and Education Department officials as they implement updated identification guidelines for federal student aid.
• For President Trump and members of his administration as they continue to seek avenues to eliminate fraud and waste.
• For God’s purposes and plans for the United States to be accomplished in and through federal governing officials.
