If Roe v. Wade is overturned, it will be an extreme step backward and a direct assault on the fundamental right to self-determination. It represents a threat not just to women but to all Americans.

Roe v. Wade has been the law of the land for nearly my entire lifetime. Iโ€™m fighting for my daughters โ€” and for every generation after them โ€” to have the same rights Iโ€™ve had.

๐ŸšจBREAKING NEWS๐Ÿšจ Today, @POTUS is signing an executive order calling on @SecCardona to review DeVos' anti-survivor Title IX rule. This is important step to show his administration will prioritize Title IX and student survivors' rights. huffpost.com/entry/biden-exeโ€ฆ

As campuses adapt to new #TitleIX rules, students are looking for alternate routes to holding schools accountable for assisting survivors of sexual harassment or assault. buff.ly/2FbPfsX

If you ever feel like you are ready to use both victim and survivor as your title, I happily present you with this term. As a victim-survivor, I get to acknowledge my growth while never forgetting the sexual assault that continue to happen to others. #sexualassault #metoo

Hello @CoriBush, my name is Laura Knittig. I am the Founder and Chief Executive Director of @researchbysave. I too have never felt like a full survivor, which is why we created victim-survivor as an all encompassing term for those affected affected sexual assault.

I am a victim of domestic abuse and sexual assault. I waited as my rape kit sat on the shelf for months. I say victim because some days I don't feel like a survivor. But I am not ashamed. I will proudly bring that pain to Congress to fight for those who never got a chance to.

ICYMI: The Department of Education has been using blogs to "clarify" portions of the new rule. Here's the thing, those clarifications have significantly altered the meaning of portions of the rule. In short, Betsy DeVos is governing via blog posts...

I still can't get over DeVos' Department of Ed chastising Obama admin for releasing guidance documents while they are governing by BLOG POSTS.
