Legislative Activities
The National
UDL Task Force works to incorporate the principles of UDL
into federal policy and practice initiatives.
For example, more than thirty-five national organizations
have joined together to recommend UDL
legislative language for the reauthorization of the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act (ESEA).
The
Task Force also made recommendations for the Higher Education
Act reauthorization, which were incorporated into the
Higher Education Opportunities Act
(HEOA). The Task
Force will make recommendations for IDEA’s reauthorization.
In addition, the Task Force seeks increased dissemination
of information about UDL by the U.S. Department of Education
and other federal agencies.
