Dear SAPC & WRAC-L Colleagues,

I heard today that the deadline on signing onto the letter below has been extended to this Thursday, 9/16/21, due to expanded distribution plans for this signatory opportunity.  I have changed the text of the letter below to reflect this extension, but all the links should remain the same.

Therefore, please consider this both a notice of the extension and a reminder to consider signing the letter if you have not already done so.

Best,

Nancy

Subject: Educators' Letter to Dept of Education to Take Swift Title IX Action
To: <>

Dear Colleagues,

The team at FacultySayHandsOffIX has recently learned of a sign-on letter for educators (of all kinds and at all levels of education) who wish to urge the Dept of Education to take swift action on issuing new proposed rules to replace the DeVos Title IX rules that went into effect in August 2020.  Please see the email below and the text of the letter at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1z6SZV6cM1j4DcNVKs8HuQvh6IxzVuXZu/edit for more details and for the link to the google form that will allow you to sign-on if you wish (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc2EDe_ssvWLuVrGo5e49XKEf9ryjV9raIhc5vP1HxJlW3frA/viewform):

__________________________

Dear educators,

 

As you may know, the Department of Education does not plan to propose a new Title IX rule until May 2022. The current Title IX rule did not become law until 21 months after it was proposed, and if the Department follows a similar timeline, a new Title IX rule will not take effect until February 2024. By that point, many students will have spent nearly all 4 years of their high school or college experience under the harmful current rule.

 

Educators are invited to join the attached sign-on letter (deadline: Thursday 9/16), which urges the Department of Education to:

1. Propose a new Title IX rule in October 2021
2. Stop enforcing harmful provisions of the Trump Title IX rule
3. Accept complaints of discrimination filed within 180 days of the most recent incident of discrimination (even if previous related incidents of discrimination occurred more than 180 days ago)

 

You can learn more about these 3 demands at www.EDActNow.org.

 

Please reach out to Diane Rosenfeld () and me if you have any questions.

 

Thank you,

Elizabeth
