TITLE __--FUNDING EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES

SEC. __. HELPING CHILDREN SUCCEED BY FUNDING THE INDIVIDUALS
WITH DISABILITIES EDUCATION ACT (IDEA).

Congress makes the following findings:
(1) All children deserve a quality education.
(2) In Pennsylvania Association for Retarded Children vs.
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (334 F. Supp. 1247)(E. Dist. Pa.
1971), and Mills vs. Board of Education of the District of
Columbia (348 F. Supp. 866)(Dist. D.C. 1972), the courts
found that children with disabilities are entitled to an
equal opportunity to an education under the 14th amendment of
the Constitution.
(3) In 1975, Congress passed what is now known as the
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (referred to in
this section as ``IDEA'') (20 U.S.C. 1400 et seq.) to help
States provide all children with disabilities a free,
appropriate public education in the least restrictive
environment. At full funding, Congress contributes 40 percent
of the average per pupil expenditure for each child with a
disability served.
(4) Before 1975, only \1/5\ of the children with
disabilities received a formal education. At that time, many
States had laws that specifically excluded many children with
disabilities, including children who were blind, deaf, or
emotionally disturbed, from receiving such an education.
(5) IDEA currently serves an estimated 200,000 infants and
toddlers, 600,000 preschoolers, and 5,400,000 children 6 to
21 years of age.
(6) IDEA enables children with disabilities to be educated
in their communities, and thus, has assisted in dramatically
reducing the number of children with disabilities who must
live in State institutions away from their families.
(7) The number of children with disabilities who complete
high school has grown significantly since the enactment of
IDEA.
(8) The number of children with disabilities who enroll in
college as freshmen has more than tripled since the enactment
of IDEA.
(9) The overall effectiveness of IDEA depends upon well
trained special education and general education teachers,
related services personnel, and other school personnel.
Congress recognizes concerns about the nationwide shortage of
personnel serving students with disabilities and the need for
improvement in the qualifications of such personnel.
(10) IDEA has raised the Nation's awareness about the
abilities and capabilities of children with disabilities.
(11) Improvements to IDEA in the 1997 amendments increased
the academic achievement of children with disabilities and
helped them to lead productive, independent lives.
(12) Changes made in 1997 also addressed the needs of those
children whose behavior impedes learning by implementing
behavioral assessments and intervention strategies to ensure
that they receive appropriate supports in order to receive a
quality education.
(13) IDEA requires a full partnership between parents of
children with disabilities and education professionals in the
design and implementation of the educational services
provided to children with disabilities.
(14) While the Federal Government has more than doubled
funding for part B of IDEA since 1995, the Federal Government
has never provided more than 17 percent of the maximum State
grant allocation for educating children with disabilities.
(15) By fully funding IDEA, Congress will strengthen the
ability of States and localities to implement the
requirements of IDEA.

SEC. __. FUNDING FOR PART B OF THE INDIVIDUALS WITH
DISABILITIES EDUCATION ACT.

(a) In General.--Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Act, in addition to any amounts otherwise appropriated
under this Act for part B of the Individuals with
Disabilities Education Act, other than section 619 of such
part, the following sums are appropriated, out of any money
in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated for the fiscal
year ending September 30, 2003, $1,500,000,000 for carrying
out such part, other than section 619 of such part, to remain
available through September 30, 2004.
(b) Across-the-Board Rescission.--Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Act, funds provided under subsection (a)
shall not result in a further across-the-board rescission
under section 601 of Division N.''.

Congress makes the following findings:
(1) In the wake of the September 11, 2001, terrorist
attacks on our country, communities all across American now
find themselves on the front lines in the war against
terrorism on United States soil.
(2) We recognize that these communities will be forced to
shoulder a significant portion of the burden that goes along
with that responsibility. We believe that local governments
should not have to bear that responsibility alone.
(3) Our homeland defense will only be as strong as the
weakest link at the State and local level. By providing our
communities with the resources and tools they need to bolster
emergency response efforts and provide for other emergency
response initiatives, we will have a better-prepared home
front and a stronger America.

employee of that determination. Except as provided in

Government owned and operated entity that was created to
stabilize, support, and protect farm income and prices;
(b) Whereas, CCC was incorporated on October 17, 1933,
under a Delaware charter. On July 1, 1939, CCC was
transferred to the United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA). It was reincorporated on July 1, 1948, as a Federal
corporation within USDA by the Commodity Credit Corporation
Charter Act (62 Stat. 1070; 15 U.S.C. 174);
(c) Whereas, the mission of the CCC has expanded over time:

[[Page S1288]]

(1) Pursuant to section 2701 of the Farm Security and Rural
Investment Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107-171), the officer and
directors of CCC have a responsibility to use the funds,
facilities, and authorities of the Commodity Credit
Corporation to carry out the conservation reserve program
(CRP); the wetlands reserve program (WRP); the conservation
security program (CSP); the grassland reserve program (GRP);
the environmental quality incentives program (EQIP); and the

Investment Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107-171) the officers and
directors of CCC have a responsibility to use the funds,
facilities, and authorities of the Commodity Credit
Corporation to carry out Title I of the Act;
(d) Whereas, CCC is managed by a Board of Directors,
subject to the general supervision and direction of the
Secretary of Agriculture, who is an ex-officio director and
chairperson of the Board. The Board consists of seven
members, in addition to the Secretary, who are appointed by
the President of the United States by and with the advice and
consent of the Senate. All members of the Board and
Corporation officers are USDA officials;
(e) Whereas, CCC has in the past requested other agencies
to assist it in the conduct of its business and reimbursed
them for their administrative expenses under the authority
granted to it by section 11 of the CCC Charter Act. For
example:
(1) CCC's price support, storage, and reserve programs, and
its domestic acquisition and disposal activities have been
carried out primarily through the personnel and facilities of
the Farm Service Agency (FSA).
(2) The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) occasionally
uses CCC authority to acquire various commodities for
domestic and foreign food assistance programs.
(3) Export sales and foreign assistance disposal of CCC-
controlled stocks have been administered through the General
Sales Manager of the Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS).
(4) The Natural Resources Conservation Service has
administered several conservation programs under the auspices
of CCC;
(f) Whereas, in 1996 section 11 of the CCC Charter Act was
amended to limit reimbursements by CCC to other agencies in
the performance of any part or all of the functions of the
CCC;
(g) Whereas, section 10 of the CCC Charter Act mandates
that the Secretary appoint such officers and employees of the
CCC as may be necessary for the conduct of business of the
Corporation. Expenditures of the Corporation under this
section are not subject to the section 11 cap on
reimbursements to other agencies;
(h) The Secretary is directed to exercise her authority
under section 10 of the CCC Charter Act and appoint such
officers and employees of the CCC as may be necessary for the
conduct of business of the Corporation if the Secretary
determines that the total amount of funds available under
section 11 of the CCC Charter Act are not sufficient to allow
other agencies to carry out the functions of the CCC.

SEC. 7__. SENSE OF THE SENATE CONCERNING CERTAIN FUNDS FOR
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE FOR MANDATORY CONSERVATION
PROGRAMS.

(a) Findings.--The Senate finds that--
(1) conservation technical assistance provided through the
Department of Agriculture is essential to help the farmers,
ranchers, and landowners of the United States to implement
and maintain critical conservation practices;
(2) Congress provided a historic increase in mandatory
funding for voluntary conservation efforts in the Farm
Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 (Public Law 107-
171);
(3) in that Act, Congress provided mandatory funding
sufficient to cover all conservation technical assistance
needed to carry out conservation programs;
(4) under that Act, conservation technical assistance is
provided to carry out conservation programs;
(5) the General Accounting Office has determined that,
under the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002,
funding for conservation technical assistance--
(A) is provided directly for conservation programs; and
(B) is not subject to the limitation specified in section
11 of the Commodity Credit Corporation Charter Act (15 U.S.C.
714i); and
(6) the General Accounting Office has determined that funds
in the Conservation Operations account cannot be used to fund
conservation technical assistance for conservation programs
under the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002.
(b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate
that--
(1) the President should provide full funding for
conservation technical assistance in order to implement
conservation programs under title XII of the Food Security
Act of 1985 (16 U.S.C. 3801 et seq.); and
(2) the President should not use funds from the
Conservation Operations account to provide conservation
technical assistance for carrying out conservation programs
