        <text><![CDATA[ <p><strong>Defending Special Education Students and Families Act of 2017</strong></p> <p>This bill amends the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)&nbsp;to authorize appropriations for grants to assist states in providing special education and related services to children with disabilities. For FY2018-FY2022, the bill authorizes specified amounts. For FY2023 and each subsequent fiscal year, the bill authorizes amounts using a specified formula.</p> <p>The bill also amends the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 to modify the discretionary spending limits for FY2018-FY2021. For each fiscal year, the bill decreases the limit for security spending by a specified amount and increases the limit for nonsecurity spending by the same amount.&nbsp;The&nbsp;nonsecurity spending increases are the same amounts as are authorized in the&nbsp;bill&nbsp;for additional funding under the IDEA in&nbsp;those fiscal years.&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"></p>]]></text>
