Trump's administration cuts student loans with "Low Earning Potential"
Trump's educational department has cut student loans to the following degrees:
Cosmetology
Massage Therapy/bodywork
Culinary arts
Medical/dental assisting
Religious studies
Social work/mental health counseling
Fine and studio arts
Music
Graphic design
English literature
Early childhood education
Nancy Pelosi on https://x.com/snopes/status/2105415648943738893 claims this was because these degrees "...don't pay off".

These degrees align with very important jobs here in the US that can make this world better and healthier. Without Medical and dental assistants, we will not get the medical or dental treatment we need. English literature, religious studies, music, and fine studio arts are all forms of expression that are claimed not to pay off. And the one that really hurts the most is the cutting of loans to counseling and psychology-related topics. After doing research, Google shows an 11% to 18% hiring rate for psychology majors. This can affect the world's overall mental health based on how many psychology majors are hired. If more psychology majors are hired, the overall health of our world will improve, and I believe Trump is truly contradicting himself by saying they don't pay off. Most Psychology jobs are anywhere between a $10,000-90,000 pay.
In conclusion, this can affect people's ability to express themselves, get the medical or dental treatment they need, and lead to a decline in mental health. This can also restrict the students' ability to get the money needed for their majors and dream schools.
