                    Part A--Miscellaneous Provisions
 
Sec. 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

    It is the sense of the Congress that the Federal Government should 
provide States and communities with adequate resources under the 
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act [20 U.S.C. 1400 et seq.] as 
soon as reasonably possible, through the reallocation of noneducation 
funds within the current budget monetary constraints.
