Former Vice President Joe Biden said Wednesday that the Trump administration’s new rule on sexual misconduct in schools aims to “shame and silence survivors,” and vowed to put a “quick end” to it if he becomes the next president.
Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee, disavowed Education Secretary Betsy DeVos’ Title IX rule, saying it “gives colleges a green light to ignore sexual violence and strip survivors of their rights.”
“Survivors deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, and when they step forward they should be heard, not silenced,” Biden said in a statement. “Today, Betsy DeVos and Donald Trump published a rule that flies in the face of that belief and guarantees that college campuses will be less safe for our nation's young people.”
The final rule unveiled by DeVos boosts the rights of those accused of sexual misconduct, and the administration says it will improve due process on college campuses and in elementary and high schools. DeVos earlier scrapped Obama administration guidance pushing schools to resolve an epidemic of complaints of sexual assault and harassment.
