For 50 years, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) has opened the doors of public education to millions of students, ensuring they receive a free, inclusive education and the services they need to learn. IDEA has transformed lives and strengthened our school communities. But these protections are at risk. Moving IDEA out of the Department of Education would weaken the supports students and educators rely on. | NEA Today
