25 June 2003
Alert! On
25 June 2003, the U.S. Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP)
Committee completed its work on Senate Bill 1248 to reauthorize IDEA and
sent it to the full Senate. The full Senate will consider the bill later
in the summer. The Division for Learning Disabilities encourages people
to learn about the proposed legislation (see HELP's site about the bill)
and to send messages to their senators expressing their opinions about
it. See the Council for Exceptional Children's (CEC) site for Legislative Updates for news about the progress of the bill.
If you would like to use the electronic message system provided by CEC
to send your opinion, simply go to CEC's Legislative
Action Center.
