this amendment represents another significant increase in IDEA funding. It represents a $3.2 billion increase over the next 2 years, which will mean that the total increase in IDEA funding over the next 2 years will be approximately $6.7 billion. That is a very dramatic increase that puts us clearly on a path toward full funding of the IDEA accounts, on which many have worked for a long time. I hope the membership supports the amendment.
