Urgent: Protect Our Children
To: Sen. Graham
From: A constituent in Conway, SC
February 11, 2025
Texas v. Becerra threatens to dismantle Section 504, a critical law ensuring equal access to education for students with disabilities. As a parent, I understand the vital importance of accommodations like preferential seating, restroom access for medical conditions, and rest periods for children managing disabilities and health issues. My own child required accommodations for rest breaks during school due to muscle weakness and surgeries related to birth defects. Without Section 504's protections, countless students would face barriers to full participation and deny them the equal educational opportunities they deserve. I urge you to withdraw from this harmful lawsuit and uphold the rights of students with disabilities by preserving Section 504 and its implementing regulations.
