Q: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Forty Percent Funding of IDEA in
Four Years Act'' or the ''Forty-in-Four Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS; PURPOSE.

(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The Federal Government appropriately requires States
that accept funds under the Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act (20 U.S.C. 1400 et seq.) to make available a free
appropriate public education to all children with disabilities.
(2) While Congress committed to contribute up to 40 percent
of the national average per pupil expenditure to assist States
and local educational agencies with the excess costs of
educating children with disabilities, the Federal Government
has never contributed more than 14.9 percent of the national
average per pupil expenditure under the Individuals with
Disabilities Education Act.
(3) If Congress fully funded the Federal Government's
obligation under the Individuals with Disabilities Education
Act, States and local educational agencies would have
significantly greater resources to reduce class size, improve
school facilities, provide local tax relief, and otherwise
redirect resources to areas based on local need.
(b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to provide by fiscal year
2005 40 percent of the national current average per pupil expenditure
to assist States and local educational agencies with the excess costs
of educating children with disabilities under part B of the Individuals
with Disabilities Education Act (20 U.S.C. 1411 et seq.)
