YOU ARE DESERVING.

Education Committee hears testimony urging Congress to fully fund IDEA At a public hearing on LR 422, testifiers told the Nebraska Education Committee that federal funding for the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act falls far short of the statutory 40% commitment, leaving state and local taxpayers to cover a persistent gap. Dozens of proponents urged the Legislature to press Nebraska's congressional delegation to act.

Nebraska advocates are demanding Congress fulfill its funding promises for the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, highlighting a staggering $197 million shortfall that leaves students behind.

Awareness is not enough. Families need real support.

Families are facing cuts to early intervention, school support, and Medicaid. That is not acceptable.
