DeVos: Discrimination on basis of sexual orientation 'unsettled' law


(CNN)Education Secretary Betsy DeVos indicated discrimination in schools on the basis of sexual orientation is "unsettled" law and a matter for Congress and the courts to address -- not her department.

After declining last month to say how she would handle allegations of private school discrimination under a federally-funded school voucher program, DeVos was pressed Tuesday on the topic by Democrats at a Senate hearing. President Donald Trump's budget proposal sets aside funds to create a school choice program, but provides few details about how it would be run.
The education secretary repeatedly said that any school "receiving federal funding is required to follow federal law," but said federal law is unclear on protections for LGBTQ students.

Is she wrong about that? I honestly do not know.

AFAIK, she's technically correct--Federal law on the subject is unclear.

Wait 40,000 of the 50,000 coal jobs come in oil?  :huh:

Most of the rest come from writing op-eds about coal
The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

Speaking from experience, don't Oil jobs tend to be rather shorter term than being a coal miner.

QuoteKids Are Quoting Trump To Bully Their Classmates And Teachers Don't Know What To Do About It
BuzzFeed News reviewed more than 50 reports of school bullying since the election and found that kids nationwide are using Trump's words to taunt their classmates. If the president can say those things, why can't they?

50 schools in all of America? You're doomed!
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

What an odd response. I don't think I posted with Tim like alarm but do feel this isn't a positive development.
