The Trump administration’s plan to begin collecting defaulted college loan payments from millions of borrowers risks contributing to an economic slowdown at a time when the U.S. faces an elevated risk of a recession, some experts told ABC News.

Trump is restarting collections on defaulted student-loan balances in two weeks. It could impact federal benefits, like Social Security, and wages.

“Going forward, the Department of Education, in conjunction with the Department of Treasury, will shepherd the student loan program responsibly and according to the law, which means helping borrowers return to repayment — both for the sake of their own financial health and our nation’s economic outlook,” McMahon said.
