"School districts that don’t respect transgender and nonbinary students’ pronouns or force them to use restrooms that don’t align with their gender identity could be committing federal civil rights violations beginning this fall.

Today, the U.S. Department of Education announced the issuance of a final rule under Title IX to protect people in public schools from sex-based discrimination and harassment. The announcement marks a significant update in federal efforts to combat sex discrimination in federally funded educational institutions. During a call with reporters, Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona emphasized the administration’s dedication to ensuring that Title IX effectively serves all students by providing safe, welcoming, and rights-respecting educational environments."

Help fight back against the GOP's War on Women and LGBTQIA+!!!

Readers, this week I volunteered to do some online help for Aria Medical, https://www.ariamedical.org/

"Aria Medical is a medication abortion clinic serving people traveling from abortion ban states, like Texas and Oklahoma. We are located in Kansas. We want to make sure people know they are not alone -- that there is help available. Some people with undesired pregnancies don't even know where to start looking, and if they google "how to find an abortion," they often get anti-abortion clinic advertisements."

PLEASE HELP THIS CRUCIALLY IMPORTANT ORG VIA A DONATION: https://bit.ly/support--Aria-Medical

You can donate your own amount, just put your desired contribution into the $0.00 field.

From the org:

"The end of Roe created a public health emergency for people in 14 states that ban abortion.

Aria Medical launched in January 2023 to expand capacity in Kansas for the thousands of people from Texas, Oklahoma and other states who must leave home to get an abortion.

Aria served over 3100 people in the first year.

90% of Aria patients are very low income, and need financial support to cover their costs.

Aria’s biggest funder is closing down operations in September.

Aria seeks one-time and sustaining donors to ensure they never turn away a patient because they cannot pay."

"France has become the only country in the world to protect the right to terminate a pregnancy in its constitution after abortion access was officially added to the freedoms guaranteed in the French constitution on Monday. The move was a direct reaction to the rollback of abortion rights in the United States and elsewhere.

But across the English Channel, women are still at risk of prosecution for having the procedure because abortion in the UK has not been decriminalised. Britain is facing a sharp rise in abortion convictions, with a law dating from 1861 being used to prosecute women and in at least one case leading to incarceration."

One quarter of Gaza's people one step away from famine, UN says

"At least 576,000 people in the Gaza Strip - one quarter of the population - are one step away from famine, a senior U.N. aid official told the Security Council on Tuesday, warning that widespread famine could be "almost inevitable" without action.

"Very little will be possible while hostilities continue and while there is a risk that they will spread into the overcrowded areas in the south of Gaza. We therefore reiterate our call for a ceasefire," said Ramesh Rajasingham, coordination director of the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs."

Is mass punishment against the Geneva Convention?

"No protected person may be punished for an offence he or she has not personally committed. Collective penalties and likewise all measures of intimidation or of terrorism are prohibited. Pillage is prohibited. Reprisals against protected persons and their property are prohibited."

Doctors Without Borders: US plan for temporary pier in Gaza a "glaring distraction"

"The US should insist on immediate humanitarian access using existing roads and entry points.

The US plan for a temporary pier in Gaza to increase the flow of humanitarian aid is a glaring distraction from the real problem: Israel’s indiscriminate and disproportionate military campaign and punishing siege. The food, water, and medical supplies so desperately needed by people in Gaza are sitting just across the border. Israel needs to facilitate rather than block the flow of supplies. This is not a logistics problem; it is a political problem. Rather than look to the US military to build a work-around, the US should insist on immediate humanitarian access using the roads and entry points that already exist.   In the past months, the US has vetoed three UN Security Council resolutions calling for a ceasefire—which is the only way to ensure a real scale up in emergency assistance. We reiterate our call for an immediate and sustained ceasefire to stop the killing of thousands more civilians and allow for the delivery of desperately needed humanitarian aid."
