From Facebook:
“The Trump administration announced a new attack on transgender students by stating that it will stop enforcing Title IX education protections, and it will rescind the Guidance released by the Obama administration last May.
Join NCTE and parents of transgender youth for a rally outside the White House to let the White House, Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions know that they are #WrongOnIX!
The Trump administration needs to know that trans students, our families, and our allies will not stand for this callous attack on trans children.
Alternative actions for those outside the DMV area:
· Draft a letter to the editor to your local paper
· Go to our School Action Center and encourage your local school district to support their transgender students http://bit.ly/2loSL6G
· Connect and volunteer with LGBT friendly legal and equality organizations
· Donate to NCTE and support our fight for equality! http://bit.ly/1SEvVP9
· Hold an event or rally in your community
