ARLINGTON, Va., May 4 (UPI) -- U.S. President Barack Obama urged high school students Friday to tell lawmakers to approve a measure that would keep student loan interest rates from doubling.
"I want you to send a message to Congress. Tell them, 'Don't double my rate.' … You should call them, you should e-mail them, write on their Facebook page, tweet them," Obama told students at Washington-Lee High School in Arlington, Va.
