@BetsyDeVosED is tampering with Title IX. Most of the attention is on higher education, but the new rules also apply to elementary + secondary schools. Once published in the Federal Register, her proposal will be open for public comment. wapo.st/2qHVSsm?tid=ss…
The new rules would reduce liability for universities, tighten the definition of sexual harassment, and allow schools to use a higher standard in evaluating claims of sexual harassment and assault.
IMO you have to wonder why the uber-rich and highly privileged DeVos wants to punish sexual assault victims, the vast majority of whom are female. There is a serious disconnect between her perception of assault and its ugly reality. Is she bowing to @GOP male donor demands?
