Foxx on Cordray’s Departure as COO of Federal Student Aid

WASHINGTON – Today, Education and the Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) issued the following statement in response to Richard Cordray’s planned departure as the head of the Department of Education’s Office of Federal Student Aid:

“Finally, we have some good news from the Department of Education: Richard Cordray is leaving. Cordray will be remembered for his ineffective leadership, blatant partisanship, and his failures regarding FAFSA rollout and return to repayment. The Department of Education’s Office of Federal Student Aid needs a leader that students, families, and institutions can rely on to put politics aside and faithfully administer the law. Mr. Cordray, don’t let the door hit you on the way out.”
