CASTLE. as well as our ranking members. Mr. MILLER and Ms. WOOLSEY. to commemorate this important occasion. I remember the hope that was ushered in with the passage of the Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975. As a member of the Texas State Board of Education at that time. I chaired the Committee on Special Populations which oversaw programs for migrant children. bilingual education programs for limited English proficient children. gifted and talented programs and programs for children with disabilities. In those days. it was a struggle to provide even basic access to schools for children with disabilities. We have come a long way.
