Join dentists and dental student advocates in urging members of Congress to support the Resident Education Deferred Interest (REDI) Act.

If enacted, this bill would allow dental and medical residents to automatically defer payments on their federal student loans until after their dental or medical residency is completed. It would also suspend the accrual of interest during their residency period. The REDI Act is one of several bills the ADA is advocating for to make educational debt manageable for the next generation of dentists. It will not eliminate the burden of educational debt, but it will help offset the unprecedented financial challenges that new dentists face at graduation.

Please join the advocacy efforts and share with your colleagues today!! You can email members of Congress and ask them to support the REDI Act at actioncenter.ada.org.
