Litigation is killing services for students. There are many frivolous lawsuits diverting resource from special education. On the other hand parents need the right to resolve problems and in many circumstance need the big legal stick.

I have been in this field for more than 30 years and will be happy to leave, never have our prospects been more dismal. Closing litigation is a major goal of the current administration. Part of me understands why, but the interest of students is not a priority. Current reauthorization of IDEA is a mess. The next reauthorization of IDEA does not promise to be much better.

:thumbsdown: for those who broke their funding promises.
