Does BetsyDeVos have a son or nephew that she’s sure this will help protect when they are excused?

90% of college's in US had 0 (zero) reports of rape on campus in 2017. ..you claim it's because victums are too afraid to report them, but you've made it easier, decades ago. wtf

BetsyDeVosED is a f..king c..t 🖕

.harvard yale brown cornell penn Take a fucking stand.

I LIKED BEER! 🍺 I STILL LIKE BEER! 🍺 🍺 🍺

Can we give DeVos the grand prize for most despicable woman of the year? “unwelcome conduct on the basis of sex that is so severe, pervasive and objectively offensive that it denies a person access to the school’s education program or activity.” Really? What does this mean?

The reason for complaints to be handled in house is so management controls the narrative.

Would somebody please tell Betsy DeVos to resign? We really don’t need a Sec of Education draining our taxpayer resources with $19 million in private secret service security, while stripping away the ability for young women to be secure on our college campuses. Damn Betsy 🤦‍♀️

She is an out and out bitch! I cannot hold back anymore, the whole administration are destroying the US, and they all need to go to jail for what they have done. Sick of seeing stories like this, where they let scum do what they want, and belittle victims! Time to take them down!

What is the explanation for this? Has a devos company been in court for sexual harassment? Is amway a misogynist organization? Makes no sense

Which level of the pyramid are the victims on?

usedgov BetsyDeVos BetsyDeVosED don't care about student safety, just the money DeVos &friends can make. It's amazing that this woman can do such harm to other women. It's soulless, cold. People mean nothing to either her or realDonaldTrump. And people still fall for their BS

Hate to say this, Betsy, but your rules are as ugly as you !!!

Personally, I hope she gets the opportunities to exercise those rules herself.

wtf is wrong with this person?

This is wrong on so many levels. Men should not receive due process. BelieveAllWomen

Wow BetsyDeVosED doing the Lord’s work! You FIGHT for those sexual assaulters! Life is so unfair for them!

hope she never gets raped

House Dems must investigate. She needs to go. $20 million for her security? When teachers can’t get their kids books?

Betsy DeVos also releases a fart

Sorry to upset anybody but if one man is wrongly convicted or expelled because it was a ‘he said, she lied’ situation and he couldn’t question his accuser, then you don’t believe in the fundamental concept of justice!

Really This is what she does& we have to pay 19 mil for her security

DrGJackBrown $20M is what her US Marshal service protection has cost us so far. Disgusting. Sessions approved it.

Is this “The Kavanaugh Act”? .... which, btw, WAS AN ACT!

Who died and made her the expert on this subject?

Bernie couldn't have said it any better.

DeVos is costing us 20 million a year for security and she wonders why she needs security. 🙄🙄🙄

So what do we do to stop her?

The Obama era alternative was completely contrary to our system of embracing due process. His policy was the accused is guilty until substantiating innocence. Of course it is essential that DeVos address the flawed Obama policy. Please be fair, WaPo, in putting this into context.

Not surprising, given our “president” is a sexual predator and who’s openly bragged about it.

BothSides

Is she even human?

Way to go Betsy, keep up the great work. If the libs are riled up it is the proper action to take.

Mlm

proposed reg defines it as “unwelcome conduct on the basis of sex that is so severe, pervasive and objectively offensive that it denies a person access to the school’s education program or activity.” Good Lord, seems like Larry Nassers (univ employees) will largely be shielded

.MichaelPetrilli but she did some good stuff RIGHT BUDDY?!?

large percentages of the women face sexual harassment and/or sexual assault. To do something substantially about it is to protect victims. This 'balancing' Betsy act is just a reversal of protection by cosmetically lower numbers and increased issue. PHD

Resign BetsyDeVosED

What's her real motivation? Does she hate other women? Or is she avenging an old grudge?

This is only going backwards, as the result is going to be more and further silencing of victims of sexual assault.

Her sons must be rapists!

'balancing the rights of victims and the accused'...wow, BetsyDeVosED...this is the battle you're choosing to fight? Coming from Michigan, you're positioning yourself as the defender of Larry Nassar here. Not a good choice.

If the MeTooMVMT is real; now is your time to step up and advise women how to respond to this archaic belief system that continues to allow 'boys to be boys' This type of culture creates people like Trump, Cosby, Weinstein BetsyDeVosED

We’re the pro-rape party !!! Yeah GOP!!! 🎉

Betsy DeVos is not qualified to be making decisions like this. Period. She should go back to sitting on her yacht. DeadlyDeVos Resign ResignDeVos DeVosResign HouseGOP SenateGOP HouseDemocrats SenateDems

Is there like a single moment where this White House & Trump’s knucklehead of an ED Sec BetsyDeVosED manage to not insult, demean or endanger women and girls?

KristenClarkeJD Grrrrrr

So they don’t want due process or a fairness in our legal system?

sues for Acosta's Due Process rights, but tries to deny them to our sons' & brothers'.

She needs to resign as she’s not qualified to run a liquor store or education in the US! Money you inherited doesn’t make you qualified for a job when you have no heart or brain! Sorry, sometimes the truth hurts!

Ask her why she identifies with predators.

Yeah, the left hates due process, it’s abundantly clear.

I am so sick of this woman. All of this is being orchestrated to protect that big bloated baby in the white house. realDonaldTrump

Wahh tired of paying non disclosure agreements for the rich

This terrible human being must be tossed out.

Theirs only one reason Betsy devose has her position is because of money donated to the republican party not her knowledge. She's a waste of our tax dollars. This country is support to be of the people by the people for the people. Not by the rich for the rich and of the rich.

the Obama policy violated the right of an accused to defend themselves. They were often not told what they were accused of or who was accusing them. George Will wrote about a case in Colorado where a man was expelled despite his partner denying it happened.

Good. Due process. Something we should all want. As we’ve learned over the last couple of months.

Bolstering due process to own the libs

thehuntinground This FootsoldierOfThePatriarchy has victimized women as much as their abusers have... Disgusting and shameful. We should be moving forward, not backward. DeVos is the absolute worst. Subhuman. HandsOffIX BelieveSurvivors

Betsy DeVos is extremely deviant & evil. She’s seriously a very disgusting person!

Right, because the perpetrators needed more protection. Holy backwards thinking, Batman.

Finally!! This is overdue! HimToo apparently only works for Ellison/Avenati/Acosta for the left! The double standards & FakeNewsCNN & WAPO can't last much longer-too many people awake today that know its a clown show of liars!

If ever the c word was appropriate, now would be the time to use it. BetsyDeVosED

SuzanneWinland Why are American taxpayers paying MILLIONS each month so this person can take away American students’ protections, rights and chances for an education?

Her last day as Education Secretary cannot come soon enough.

I still think someone who deliberately false accuses someone of sexual assault should get the same punishment as the accused would have gotten. If it so happens that someone already been in jail for years and the in comes out that he or she is innocent those years should be added

finally justice might actually happen

Lock er up

thehuntinground I’m a retired Title IX officer & this is a monumental setback. It will result in fewer reports. NYS has laws that ensure equitable process for both parties w/o accused cross-examining accuser.

FTFY Ahead of the release, advocates for women and others charged, without evidence, that the rewrite will result in victims’ claims being ignored or minimized.

Good! Due process is a GOOD thing.

She might have a different position if she hadn’t been raised in a protected, privileged ELITE Republican environment.

Betsy DeVos moves to strengthen the rights of the accused in campus sexual misconduct casesEducation Secretary Betsy DeVos unveiled sweeping proposed changes Friday to campus sexual misconduct rules, bolstering rights of the accused and giving colleges more flexibility in handling Title IX cases. There are many vindictive women who have falsely accused men of rape and ruined their lives, and have gotten away with it. There's no doubt about it. But this woman is not offering solutions. She's offering a white supremacist position that says women are lesser beings. Thank God for Betsy DeVos!
