Question presented

December 2016, the day before Christmas Eve, the petitioner received a correspondence from U.S. Department of Education stating payment on his student loans is due in full, and a few months later, the Department of Justice sends the petitioner a letter stating my correspondence to the Secretary of Education described decades of discrimination- to date no payment has been made on the defaulted loans due. Is the U.S. Department of Education lawfully permitted to mandate payment on student loans taken by a student when non-discriminatory conditions for federal financial assistance have not been met? W
