§ 6062. Funding for Individuals with Disabilities Education Act
(a) Findings
The Congress finds that—
(1) the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act [20 U.S.C. 1400 et seq.] was established with the commitment of forty percent Federal funding but currently receives only eight percent Federal funding;
(2) this funding shortfall is particularly burdensome to school districts and schools in low-income areas which serve higher than average proportions of students with disabilities and have fewer local resources to contribute; and
(3) it would cost the Federal Government approximately $10,000,000,000 each year to fully fund the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.
(b) Sense of Congress
(Pub. L. 103–227, title X, § 1012, Mar. 31, 1994, 108 Stat. 265.)
