Página 1 - In these days, it is doubtful that any child may reasonably be expected to succeed in life if he is denied the opportunity of an education. Such an opportunity, where the state has undertaken to provide it, is a right which must be made available to all on equal terms. We come then to the question presented: Does segregation of children in public schools solely on the basis of race, even though the physical facilities and other "tangible" factors may be equal, deprive the children of the minority...

Página 19 - I realize that the enactment and implementation of PL 94-142 have been the subject of some debate and controversy and that there are some who maintain that those of us in Congress did not really understand what we were doing when we wrote the law. Not so. We who worked in committee and on the floor to fashion the legislation had clear and compelling objectives. First, there was a pressing problem for which a Federal response was both necessary and appropriate. For we were as a nation falling critically...
Página 16 - Whan, in 1973, as Chairman of the Select Education Subcommittee, I started looking into this issue, my colleagues and I learned that there were millions of handicapped children of school age who were either receiving an inadequate education or none at all. Before tracing the history of the legislation, I want to underscore several significant facts. * First, there was a great and pressing need to address the problems of the handicapped. We in Congress were confronted with stark evidence that millions...
