Know Your IX @knowyourIX Aug 17, 2023

School's back in session, and so are we. But too often, student survivors of sex-based harassment face an impossible choice: if they speak out, their abuser threatens to sue them for defamation.

We're here to help, with a new toolkit to empower survivors speaking out.🧵

In black and white, a young, Black person wearing glasses holds their fist in the air and speaks into a voice amplifier. The two people behind them look on, with their faces partially obscured by the voice amplifier. On the bottom half of the page, bold text that is highlighted in red, text reads "Survivors Speaking Out." Below, in smaller, light pink text, reads "A Toolkit About Defamation Lawsuits and Other Retaliation By and For People Speaking Out About Sex-Based Harassment." Logos for Know Your IX and The National Women's Law Center are in the top right corner of the page.

📢Huge news! The Biden administration has FINALLY released new #TitleIX rules! After YEARS of advocacy from students & survivors, schools can finally implement changes that will make K-12 schools and colleges safer and more accessible for all young people. 🧵

Today, we gathered at the White House to demand immediate action from @POTUS to finalize a new #TitleIX rule. Students cannot endure another four years of the current regs.

www.usatoday.com Biden promised to reform Title IX. Students are tired of waiting Students and reform advocates rallied in front of the White House on Tuesday, demanding “immediate action” from Biden to reform Title IX rules.

Join us TOMORROW in front of the White House to urge @POTUS to follow through on his promise to protect ALL students by finalizing new Title IX rules NOW.

Students are expected to meet deadlines. It’s time for the Biden administration to meet theirs.

“After years of advocating for changes to the Trump/Devos-era Title IX rules, students like me are tired of waiting for @usedgov to issue new rules that will protect us from further harm & ensure the equal access to education we deserve.” usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

www.usatoday.com Biden's Title IX promise to survivors is overdue. We can't wait on Washington's chaos to end. Schools use a standard even higher than the one used in claims of workplace sexual harassment. An inert Congress could cost student survivors justice.
