Congressman Shri Thanedar's comprehensive approach to improving education starts with financial relief for those burdened by student loans. He introduced the Stopping Abusive Student Loan Collection Practices in Bankruptcy Act, which provides for the granting of attorney's fees and the costs of the proceeding to debtors whose student loans are discharged due to undue hardship, thereby offering a financial lifeline to those grappling with educational debt.

Following this, Congressman Thanedar has also concentrated on improving the quality of education and teacher support through co-sponsoring the American Teacher Act. This legislation aims to elevate the teaching profession by increasing minimum salaries for public school teachers and initiating a national campaign about the value of educators. Additionally, he co-sponsored the Charter Oversight, Accountability, and Transparency Act or COAT Act to tackle oversight issues with charter schools, particularly pressing in Michigan. To ensure a more sustainable future and academic enrichment for students, he supports the Green New Deal for Public Schools, offering a pathway to environmental responsibility and additional tutoring programs in schools. Furthermore, Congressman Thanedar has also co-sponsored the College for All Act, demonstrating his dedication to affordable higher education. This legislation proposes that the federal government cover 67% of the cost of eliminating tuition and fees at public colleges and universities. This significant investment in education aligns with his vision of providing accessible and quality education opportunities to the people of his district.

Through this holistic set of legislative actions, Congressman Thanedar is actively working to make education more accessible, fair, and sustainable for everyone in Michigan's 13th Congressional District
