Education
As students are forced to take on record levels of debt in order to keep up with record tuition costs, Wyden has authored legislation to provide all potential college students with reliable information on what students can expect to make in the workplace. This level of information will give students the ability to choose their schools, majors and career paths with as much insight into the financial return on their higher education investment as possible. Wyden previously authored the College Tuition Savings Act which became law in 2001 as part of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act and eliminated taxes on College Tuition Savings funds.
