AI Summary

This bill, titled the "Individuals with Disabilities Education And Legacy Act" or "IDEAL Act," aims to redirect funds to states for special education services. Specifically, it proposes to cancel or "rescind" any unspent money allocated to the Department of Education for the fiscal year 2026 that has not yet been used. These rescinded funds would then be transferred to states to support programs under section 611 of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). IDEA is a federal law that ensures students with disabilities receive free appropriate public education tailored to their individual needs, and section 611 outlines how federal funds are distributed to states for this purpose. The bill also requires the Secretary of Education to report on the amounts rescinded and allocated to each state.
