Some Republicans have raised doubts about the popularity of closing the department or slashing its programs, which support Republican and Democratic states alike. “Imagine if we have billions of dollars frozen at the federal level," Kunesh said at a press conference."How are we going to make sure they have the curriculum they have to learn?”
