Washington – Three US house committees approved the first law on Tuesday, from which the Republicans will make up a massive reconciliation package after rejecting numerous democratic changes.

Tim Walberg, Chairman of the Education Committee, R-Mich, wrote in a statement after his committee had approved his bill that the measures would not only save the taxpayer over $ 350 billion, but would also bring in the urgently needed reform in three key areas: simplified repayment of loans, optimized study options and accountability for students and tax payments. “
