Federal funding to the States would end leaving the States to foot the bill. Since most schools are funded from property taxes, those taxes would have to rise to meet the additional burden not covered by the federal government. This would disproportionately affect red states since the top fifteen states reliant on government funding for education are all red states.

Much of what schools do is already handled by states.
