So much for the 14th Amendment:

Section 1
All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Campus Sexual Assault

The proposed rule offers no right to cross-examine witnesses, so the same single investigator could determine which questions are relevant. Colleges could decide whether or not to hold a live hearing. This could effectively drive Title IX proceedings behind closed doors.

The draft rule also takes an expansive view of what constitutes sexual or sex-based harassment. It cites the 2020 Bostock v. Clayton Co. ruling, in which the Supreme Court said the definition of “sex” under Title VII the Civil Rights Act of 1964 encompasses gender identity and sexual orientation.

This is especially fraught for women’s athletics, and the Department of Education says that will require a separate rule. The First Amendment risk is that students or professors who fail to use preferred pronouns or express non-progressive opinions about gender identity will find themselves before Title IX disciplinary panels.

The Far Left is almost as delusional as the insane Trumpers. How does this help the Dems get moderates to vote for them?
