Founder/President of Student Activists Against Sexual Assault at Temple University | 2024 Truman Scholar | Student Body President | 2024 Iconic Philly Woman
Check out my new piece in The Nation: "How New Title IX Rules Leave Sexual Assault Survivors in the Lurch" https://lnkd.in/dZaDqq7P I wrote this piece following last week's release of the new Title IX regulations, which at first, appeared to propose, for the most part, beneficial and trauma-informed changes. A closer look reveals that the regulations suffer from a potentially damaging omission: They do nothing to counter the rising threat of defamation actions against Title IX complainants who give evidence under the modified form of cross-examination outlined in the new regs. When I was applying for the Truman Scholarship, my policy proposal was rooted in enshrining legal protection in this exact scenario. The new regulations pose an even larger risk in the longterm for survivors who undergo a trauma-informed Title IX adjudication/investigation process. With the new regulations proposing processes that move further away from Title IX's previous quasi-judicial practices, vulnerabilities to retaliatory lawsuits will increase.

Wednesday Title IX Final Rule Litigation Update: Four cases in suit: - State of Texas v. The United States of America (N.D.Tex) - State of Louisiana et al v. U S Dept of Education (W.D.La) - Alabama, State of et al v. Cardona (W.D.Al) (PI filed) - State of Tennessee et al v. Cardona (E.D.Ky) (PI filed) Preliminary injunctions have been filed in the Tennessee and Alabama cases, but not yet opposed, and in the Tennessee case, a motion to expedite the hearing on the PI to the week of May 28 is on file, but hasn't been ruled on yet. The Government's response to the motion to expedite argues: Plaintiffs set forth no explanation of why they require an expedited timeline, or why this Court’s default 21-day response deadline applicable to their Motion for § 705 Stay and Preliminary Injunction (“motion for preliminary injunction”) would be insufficient to meet their needs. Indeed, the Final Rule that Plaintiffs challenge will not be effective until August 1, 2024, 89 Fed. Reg. 33,474 (April 29, 2024), nearly three months from today. Moreover, the numerous issues raised in Plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction will require substantial intra-agency and interagency coordination and review by the Department of Justice and the Department of Education.
At least three lawsuits were filed today by Republican-led state attorney general offices seeking to enjoin the recently-published final Title IX regulations.

Virginia is currently in the early voting stage for state and local elections. The outcome of the elections may also have an effect on next year's Presidential election, as Gov. Glenn Youngkin is considered to be a likely candidate, especially if Republicans do well in the fall. Youngkin has been active in his education agenda, which follows a strong push by education advocates in the GOP campaign. Local Boards of Elections, though officially nonpolitical, will have some very political campaigns this fall. #virginia #elections2023 #nationalelections #localgovernment #stategovernment #governance #educationagenda #lgbtq #censorship
"Civil rights advocates agree with district leaders who say the new policies contradict a number of state and federal anti-discrimination laws." Good for Fairfax, Arlington, and Prince William counties. https://lnkd.in/gG-cMxJi

https://lnkd.in/eDFMa_Nj The new Title IX Rule has been blocked in 10 states so far, with other states scrambling to comply with the laundry list of expensive requirements by the August 1 deadline. In siding with the states seeking an injunction, Chief Judge Terry Doughty summed it up well: "The logic of Title IX was sound, the execution was flawless, and the application has had stellar results for years. Therefore, the Court must ask itself, what is the driving force behind a change to such a successful and inclusive rule, and if the driving force has legitimate reasons for the change, why is the enforcement of the changes being done in such a hurried and sloppy manner?"

This recent California court decision sheds light on issues surrounding implicit bias. The case involves a Black man detained by the San Diego Police Department on a concealed firearm violation, raising concerns of racial profiling. Expert testimonies and bodycam footage analysis suggest unintended racial bias may have played a role. The trial court, however, focused on whether the officer knowingly stopped a Black man, overlooking the potential influence of implicit bias. Discover the full details and implications by accessing the Daily Appellate Reports. The case underscores the significance of the Racial Justice Act, allowing defendants to seek relief from bias, whether intentional or unintentional.
