What this bill would do

This bill is called the Professional Degree Access Restoration Act. It is designed to reverse reductions in Federal loan availability for graduate and professional students that were enacted under Public Law 119-21. The text amends the Higher Education Act of 1965. Specifically, it changes annual and aggregate loan limits for graduate and professional students by altering section 455(a) of that Act. It removes certain limits and subparagraphs, and makes technical and conforming amendments.
