Kennedy Chair, Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions United States Senate * The Honorable Judd Gregg Ranking Minority Member Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions United States Senate * The Honorable John A. Boehner Chair, Committee on Education and the Workforce United States House of Representatives * The Honorable George Miller Ranking Minority Member Committee on Education and the Workforce United States House of Representatives Dear Senators and Representatives: The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (Commission) commends the bipartisan spirit with which Congress passed the No Child Left Behind education reform initiative earlier this year. Now the nation must ensure that students with disabilities have equal access to the education these reforms make possible. As the nation's governmental conscience on civil rights, the Commission urges members of Congress to consider the civil rights implications of any revisions to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) now before you for reauthorization. The Commission is continuing to work on these issues and will continue to consider ways to improve the enforcement of IDEA. However, we ask that you strengthen the protections afforded to students with disabilities under this landmark civil rights legislation during this reauthorization period.
