- Education Department scaled back special education monitoring: report
The U.S. Department of Education has reduced federal monitoring of state special education systems, visiting fewer than half of scheduled states for 2025-2026 reviews. The Council of Parent Attorneys and Advocates (COPAA) warns this could leave states unreviewed for 25 years, risking gaps in compliance oversight. The Trump administration plans to transfer special education oversight to the Department of Health and Human Services, a move opposed by COPAA and facing potential congressional scrutiny.
