The House-passed budget would deal a devastating $5.6 billion cut to Pell Grants, which provides college financial aid to low-income families. That means 1.4 million students could be affected and at least 180,000 students would lose their Pell financial aid entirely - limiting their access to college and the job training and increased income that comes with it.
By cutting 5.6 billion to pell grants now, the Federal government could lose an estimated 29 billion in future revenues - a ridiculous tradeoff.Protect students from cuts!
