Rep. Scott Peters, CA-50, on Monday announced legislation that would automatically forgive student loans for military service members. The current process for service members and veterans is "complicated and burdensome," a press release from Peters noted.

"It should not be that hard," Peters said at a Monday morning press briefing.
