Don’t Let Your Voice Be Silenced: Speak Up for Special Education in Texas
As advocates for special education, it is essential that we pay attention to the legislation that could affect the rights of children with disabilities. H.B. No. 2125, a bill being considered in Texas, could damage the ability for parents to advocate for their children. We must speak up and ensure that all children have access to equal education opportunities. Join us in the fight to protect special education rights in Texas by contacting the members of the House of Public Education Committee and urging them to vote against this harmful bill. Together, we can make a difference for children with disabilities.
