According to the LA Times Analysis of Department of Education Data, 26% of undergraduates receiving Veteran education benefits have taken on student loan debt to pay for their education and living expenses. Create a program that would provide Veteran specific student loan forgiveness similar to the current loan forgiveness program.

Apply this to all student loans not only Direct loans.
