Thank you to @RepEscobar for co-sponsoring the IDEA Full Funding Act!
If passed, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) will be funded to the promised 40% federal funding, and students with disabilities will get the services, resources they need, deserve!
I’m a proud cosponsor of the IDEA Full Funding Act.
Under this legislation, children with disabilities will be unconditionally granted access to equitable public education. Glad to meet with members of the @SOCORROAFT to learn more about continuing the fight!

We want to THANK Congresswoman @RepEscobar for co-sponsoring HR 5984, which would increase the federal share of IDEA funding to 40%. 👏
This would ensure that our @SocorroISD students with disabilities receive the support and services they need to succeed.
