Prohibits using federal (appropriated) funds to move, close, restructure, reassign staff from, or outsource the Department of Education offices that run special education and vocational rehabilitation programs, and reaffirms that those program offices are statutorily housed in the Department of Education. It preserves the current organizational placement and limits executive-branch actions that would change how those disability programs are administered without congressional action.
The bill applies to the Office of Special Education Programs and the Rehabilitation Services Administration, prevents outsourcing or staffing changes that would prevent legal obligations from being met, and does not authorize new spending or change program substance—only how the Department may reorganize or delegate these duties using appropriated funds.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
