Bill > HRes920

This resolution commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), recognizing its transformative impact on education for children with disabilities. Prior to IDEA's enactment in 1975, over 1 million children with disabilities were excluded from public schools or received inadequate education. The resolution highlights IDEA's critical achievements, including establishing the right to a free appropriate public education in the least restrictive environment, protecting the rights of children with disabilities and their families, supporting comprehensive early intervention services, ensuring parents are meaningful partners in educational planning, and providing tools to improve educational access and opportunity. The resolution formally recognizes and celebrates IDEA's legacy, honors the millions of children who have benefited from the law, commends the educators, families, advocates, and policymakers who have supported its implementation, and reaffirms a commitment to ensuring high-quality education for every child with a disability.
