Protect Students and Taxpayers is a coalition of organizations working on behalf of students, veterans, faculty
and staff, civil rights advocates, researchers and others concerned about unaffordable student debts and
predatory practices. The coalition strongly supports accountability provisions that offer college students
commonsense consumer protections. We oppose the delay, dismantling or weakening of policies that could
prevent taxpayer dollars being wasted, and we demand accountability for college programs that overcharge and
underdeliver. Through research, advocacy and litigation, we seek to improve transparency, oversight and
accountability in higher education and to address the disproportionate impact that predatory practices by
colleges have on students of color, low-income students and veterans.
