加州总检察长 Bonta 发表声明：联邦政府撤回公共服务贷款豁免规则案上诉
加州总检察长办公室（Office of the Attorney General）10月22日发表声明称，特朗普政府已撤回其就公共服务贷款豁免（Public Service Loan Forgiveness，PSLF）规则一案裁决提出的上诉。
加州总检察长 Rob Bonta 在声明中说，该案源于美国教育部（Department of Education）的一项规则，该规则将允许政府剥夺被其认定具有「重大非法目的」的政府与非营利组织雇员的 PSLF 资格。PSLF 是联邦层面的贷款豁免计划，为在公共服务岗位工作并完成10年合格还款的借款人免除其剩余联邦学生贷款。
声明称，包括加州在内的22个州的总检察长联盟于2025年11月就该规则提起诉讼，并于2026年6月获得 Massachusetts 州联邦地区法院的裁决，该裁决撤销了这项规则。联邦政府此次撤回上诉，意味着地区法院的裁决继续有效，此案以加州及原告各州胜诉告结。
Bonta 在声明中说：「我们的教育工作者、医护人员与第一响应者选择公共服务，是因为他们热爱自己的社区、想要有所作为。……特朗普政府试图把一个两党共同作出的承诺变成政治武器，未能得逞，现已撤回上诉。」

Attorney General Bonta: Trump Administration Drops Appeal in Public Service Loan Forgiveness Case
California Attorney General Rob Bonta issued a statement on October 22 after the Trump Administration dropped its appeal of a court decision vacating a U.S. Department of Education rule on Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF), the Attorney General's office said.
The rule would have allowed the Administration to strip PSLF eligibility from employees of government and nonprofit organizations it deems to have a "substantial illegal purpose," the statement said. PSLF is the federal program that forgives the remaining federal student loans of borrowers who work in public service and make 10 years of qualifying payments.
As part of a coalition of 22 attorneys general, Bonta sued the Trump Administration over the rule in November 2025 and secured a decision from the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts vacating it in June 2026, the statement said. By dropping its appeal, the Administration leaves the District Court's ruling in place, resolving the matter in favor of California and the plaintiff states.
"Our educators, healthcare workers, and first responders choose public service because they love their communities and want to make a difference," Bonta said in the statement. "The Trump Administration tried and failed to turn a bipartisan promise into a political weapon."
