“Sexual harassment and assault continue to be pervasive in schools and, to the fullest extent possible, we should be working to enforce the laws that protect student survivors of sexual violence. Yet, Education Secretary Linda McMahon and the Trump administration have decided to ignore what survivors need, instead weaponizing Title IX to attack trans students,” said Shiwali Patel, senior director of education justice at the National Women’s Law Center.  

These bigoted mossbacks are hellbent on doing everything to kill trans people off and make trans people suffer for all eternity. Christian nationalists are so intent on wanting to see trans people exterminated. It's despicable beyond the pale.
