"Cutting Pell Grants is a double whammy for Minnesotans. Fewer Pell Grant dollars for students means Minnesota’s State Grant Program, which helps students afford college, has to spend more to meet student need, which in turn limits the number of students who receive state grants or the amount that many may receive."
