      "summary": "The Senate on May 20, 1999 and the House on June 17, 1999 passed substantially similar\namendments to the due process provisions in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). \nIDEA provides federal funds to the states to assist them in providing an education for children with\ndisabilities. As a condition for the receipt of these funds, IDEA contains requirements on the\nprovision of services and detailed due process procedures. In 1997 Congress amended IDEA in the\nmost comprehensive and controversial reauthorization since IDEA's original enactment in 1975. One\nof the most contentious issues addressed in the 1997 legislation related to the disciplinary procedures\napplicable to children with disabilities. This issue was raised again in Amendment 355 to\n S. 254 , 106th Congress, the Violent and Repeat Juvenile Accountability and\nRehabilitation Act of 1999, which passed the Senate on May 20, 1999 and Amendment 39 to\n H.R. 1501 , the Child Safety and Protection Act, which passed the House on June 17,\n1999. This report will be updated as appropriate. For a more detailed discussion of the due process\nprovisions in IDEA see  CRS Report 98-42 ,  Individuals with Disabilities Education Act:\nDiscipline\nProvisions in P.L.  105-17 .",
