California Students with Disabilities Face Special Education Cuts

Event scores 9.35 on A-scale (below 25 threshold) with civil_rights as primary driver (4/5) due to impacts on disabled students' educational access under IDEA protections. Rule_of_law (2/5) reflects federal policy change implementation. Resource_reallocation mechanism adds 15% modifier, single_state scope reduces by 15%. B-score of 24.79 (just below 25 threshold) driven by high outrage_bait (8) targeting vulnerable children, strong pattern_match (8) to anti-Trump education narratives, and narrative_pivot (7) framing as federal assault on disabled students. Intentionality moderate (8/15) with emotional language ('terrifying'). D-score: -15.44. Classification: Noise due to A<25, narrow population impact, single-state administrative dispute over federal funding/policy implementation rather than constitutional mechanism, and high emotional framing relative to actual constitutional damage. This appears to be legitimate special education funding/policy concern amplified through constitutional crisis framing.
