Sessions Description

  • The many present attacks on the enforcement of civil and disability rights laws provide us with an opportunity to reflect on the history and impact of these statutes and to consider challenges and possibilities ahead. This panel will consider, among other questions, how the present dismantling of civil rights laws and agencies will impact the enforcement of statutes like the IDEA, Section 504, and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the lives of the people those laws and agencies were created to protect.
