US President Joe Biden gestures after speaking about student loan debt relief at Madison Area Technical College in Madison, Wisconsin, April 8, 2024. The Biden administration introduced a new proposal Friday to deliver student loan forgiveness to Americans who experience "financially devastating hardships." The announcement was the latest effort by the Education Department under President Joe Biden to cancel people's education debt. However, the department's previous attempts to provide wide-scale student loan forgiveness are currently being blocked by the courts after a wave of GOP-led legal challenges. Former President Donald Trump is a vocal critic of policies to reduce or eliminate the balances of student loan holders.

One of the patients in the McDonald's outbreak suffered from that condition, known as hemolytic uremic syndrome. Hedberg is also a member of the McDonald's Food Safety Advisory Council, but said he has not worked with the company on its response to the outbreak. The size of the outbreak "would imply widespread undercooking by many different individual McDonald's restaurants" if beef was the culprit, according to Hedberg. For example, rival Wendy's dealt with its own link to an E. coli outbreak two years ago. However, that transparency means more media coverage, which reminds consumers about the crisis and risks scaring them away from McDonald's restaurants.

After a months-long negotiated rulemaking process, President Joe Biden and his administration have unveiled a new proposed regulation to provide debt relief to student loan borrowers facing financial hardship. It goes on to list 17 non-exclusive factors that could substantiate hardship. The other pathway will likely be primarily application-based and will see the department considering individual cases for debt relief using these factors or other evidence of hardship. The proposal will soon be entered into the Federal Register where it will undergo a 30-day public comment period. This debt relief action stems from the Supreme Court's ruling against President Biden's plan to enact broad student loan forgiveness in June 2023.
