Quick Glance: Trump's Education Cuts Could Hit Red States Hardest
- Dismantling the Department of Education may be more costly for Trump-voting states compared to those that supported Harris.
- In the 2021-22 school year, average federal funding was 17% in Trump states, versus 11% in Harris states.
