Join National Congress Call-In Day on Thursday, June 25

June 25, 2026
12:00am - 11:45pm

Voice your opposition to moving special education and disability civil rights enforcement out of the U.S. Department of Education.

On June 16, the Department of Education announced it will hand day-to-day administration of the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (OSERS), which houses the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP), to the Department of Health and Human Services, and shift the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) to the Department of Justice.

OSEP is the office that turns the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) from words on paper into real protections for the roughly 7.5 million children with disabilities it serves. OCR is where many families turn when a school denies their child services or accommodations.

Phone calls carry far more weight than emails on a call-in day, so please pick up the phone. The whole thing takes about five minutes.

The more calls Congress hears on Thursday, the louder the message. Thank you for standing up for students with disabilities. Plan to call on Thursday, June 25 2026 between 9 am and 5 pm Eastern.
