The Biden Administration released its proposed Title IX rule Thursday, and here we go again. The Department of Education would limit due process for accused students, and its new definition of sexual harassment is on a collision course with the First Amendment.
In 2020 former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos finalized a Title IX rule to restore due-process protections for those accused on campus of sexual harassment or assault. Obama Title IX czar Catherine Lhamon denounced the reform as a return “to the bad old days, that predate my birth, when it was permissible to rape and sexually harass students with impunity.”
