These public service workers have dedicated their careers to serving their communities, but because of past administrative failures, never got the relief they were entitled to under the law, President Joe Biden, via statement.

Because of the fixes my administration has made, we have now canceled student debt for over 870,000 public service workers — compared to only about 7,000 public service borrowers ever receiving forgiveness prior to my administration, President Joe Biden, via statement.

Those who are eligible for this round of student loan forgiveness will receive an email next week.

Thousands more who are enrolled in the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program will receive emails "if they are within two years of having their debt forgiven," NPR reports.

From day one of my administration, I promised to fix broken student loan programs and make sure higher education is a ticket to the middle class, not a barrier to opportunity, President Joe Biden, via statement.

I won't back down from using every tool at my disposal to deliver student debt relief to more Americans, and build an economy from the middle out and bottom up, President Joe Biden, via statement
