What the petition asks
Temporarily suspend student loan repayments during the COVID -19 crisis for healthcare workers.
Healthcare workers are going to be working under immense pressure in the coming months and many struggle at the best of times to financially support their families. They may be the only source of income for their families for months to come. Relieving any financial strain during this critical time would provide immense support to our healthcare workers. This will allow them to concentrate on supporting our countries vulnerable during these unprecedented times.
