The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, or IDEA, opened doors that were once firmly shut for students with disabilities. As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the IDEA, we reflect on how far we’ve come, and the work yet to do, to protect students with disabilities.

On November 29, 1975, the Education for All Handicapped Children Act was signed into law. Today, this law, now known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), ensures all infants, toddlers, children, and youth with disabilities and their families have access to special education, related services, and early intervention that meet their needs.

Students with disabilities are students first. For 50 years, the Dept of Education has been tasked with ensuring students with disabilities have the opportunity to learn & grow. The Trump admin's decision to move that responsibility to HHS & DOJ will only hurt these students. It's shameful.

Medicaid provides health care to 1 in 3 people with disabilities. Trump just decimated the program. Today, as we honor the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, we stand in solidarity with Carl Schulze. These attacks on the disability community cannot stand.

BREAKING: While boasting on Fox News about her efforts to dismantle the Department of Education, Linda McMahon couldn’t even explain what the IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) is. This is the person trying to destroy education in America. Let that sink in.

Texas school district plans to segregate 5,000 students with disabilities—bus them to far away separate, but equal facilities. Now even Trump's Dept. of Education has opened civil rights investigation. "Longer bus rides could create challenges for students with medical needs," federal government report states. "Schools cannot exclude students with disabilities simply because of their disability status." The school district's plan would move kids from their neighborhood schools starting this year—to designated "Special Education Specialty Schools." Parents argue that it removes children from their communities, long-time friendships, routines, and established support networks. Houston Independent School District officials claim busing students with disabilities will help the district address long-standing compliance issues.

Today, the Senate HELP Committee voted to advance bipartisan legislation I introduced with Senators Tim Kaine and Lisa Murkowski to prevent the Department of Education from transferring critical offices responsible for special education and rehabilitative services, postsecondary education, elementary and secondary education, and Indian education to other federal agencies that lack the staff and expertise needed to execute their missions. One of the offices protected by our bill manages programs established under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, known as IDEA, that help meet the educational needs of more than 8 million children with disabilities. Moving this work to the Department of Health and Human Services fundamentally misunderstands the purpose of the Special Education program. It is focused primarily on students’ educational needs, not their health care needs. Every American, regardless of background or disability, deserves access to a quality public education. These important landmark programs must remain at the Department of Education, where Congress specifically placed them and where they belong.

We are going to remind the American public of what Elon Musk is trying to do: destroy the Department of Education which provides funds for students with disabilities, gut the NIH which gives grants for cancer research, and get access to our private data. We will fight back hard.

If students were taught well in the first place, fewer would need Tier 2 intervention. Some students are victims of instructional disabilities, not learning disabilities. This is from my conversation with Anita Archer. Link to episode below ⬇️

Before the Americans with Disabilities Act, a person with disabilities could be denied service in a restaurant or grocery store. An employer could refuse to interview or hire you because of a disability. With the ADA, we began to give every American a fair chance in the race of life.

I rise for students, teachers, families, and everyone out there frightened about what’s happening to education. We won’t stand by while they dismantle education, gut civil rights, and attack programs that serve all students, including students with disabilities. In New Mexico, we know that our children are our future and education is the key. Which is why I’m in this fight all the way!
