Bill > S108

This bill, titled the IDEA Full Funding Act, aims to amend the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) to ensure full federal funding for Part B, which provides financial assistance to states for educating children with disabilities. The proposed changes specify substantial increases in authorized appropriations and direct appropriations for Part B of IDEA over several fiscal years, starting from fiscal year 2013 and continuing through fiscal year 2021 and beyond. For instance, it authorizes $12,144,803,000 and appropriates $1,361,842,000 for fiscal year 2013, with these amounts escalating significantly in subsequent years, ultimately aiming to cover the maximum grant amounts states can receive under a specific subsection of the Act, minus a certain amount, for fiscal year 2021 and each year thereafter.
