I daresay that Senator Weicker had as much to do with increasing the commitment of this Nation to special needs children as any Member here. This has been a Republican as well as a Democratic effort. We have often listened to our colleagues talk about how migrant children and illegal children have settled in various States and schools. and how they need some help and assistance. But if you take out the nutrition programs. and the special needs programs. if you take out Star schools. take out technology. take out the TRIO program. what do we have left? These are programs that have been tested. evaluated. challenged. and worked.
