Adem\u00e1s, dijo, el presupuesto de la C\u00e1mara congelar\u00eda el monto m\u00e1ximo de la beca Pell durante 10 a\u00f1os, a pesar de que los costos de matr\u00edcula y alojamiento y comida contin\u00faan aumentando.<\/p>\n<p>El presupuesto republicano tambi\u00e9n cambia la forma en que el gobierno federal contabiliza los pr\u00e9stamos estudiantiles, explic\u00f3 el senador.<\/p>\n<p>El cambio har\u00eda que los pr\u00e9stamos para estudiantes parezcan m\u00e1s caros para el gobierno federal de lo que realmente son. Por el contrario, Merkley ha copatrocinado una legislaci\u00f3n para reducir la tasa de inter\u00e9s que se cobra a los estudiantes y para permitir que las personas refinancien los pr\u00e9stamos estudiantiles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cComo el primero en mi familia en ir a la universidad, s\u00e9 muy bien cu\u00e1n abrumador puede ser el costo de la universidad para los estudiantes de familias trabajadoras\u201d, dijo Merkley. \u201cY con el costo de la universidad por las nubes, es m\u00e1s importante que nunca enfocarse en hacer que la universidad sea asequible para la clase media\u201d.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BEND, Ore. &#8211; Sen.
