I welcome today’s announcement that @usedgov is holding MSU accountable for failing to protect the campus community.
But I remain deeply concerned by @BetsyDeVosED’s approach to the issue of campus sexual assault — as she is currently working to water down Title IX protections.https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1169651958619299841 …
Today, Secretary DeVos herself said, ‘Never again should incidents of sexual misconduct on campuses — or anywhere — be swept under the rug.’
But what she fails to recognize is that under her own proposed changes to Title IX, many survivors of sexual assault — including many of the survivors of Larry Nassar’s abuse — would be prevented from bringing Title IX claims.
Secretary DeVos is calling out MSU for systemically failing to protect students from sexual assault, while simultaneously pushing federal policies that do the very same thing — rolling back protections for survivors.
It is hypocritical and, most importantly, makes our K-12 schools and campuses less safe. I urge her to absorb her own words from today’s statement and re-think her proposed changes to Title IX.
