I'll enter the debate.

Drew MaBoundaries Today, I have offered an amendment to the Protection of the Assaulted Act 2018 currently being debated in Congress. While quite focused on the punishments and penalties for those found to have committed the crimes it wishes to prevent, the bill currently lacks any affirmative measures that, if passed into law, would affirmatively work to prevent these heinous acts from being committed in the first place. As many of these crimes occur in our nation's schools and on college campuses, it is critical that our students be equipped with both the knowledge of how to appropriately navigate issues of consent as well as how to interject as a bystander on behalf of someone being taken advantage of. This is why I have drafted a common-sense amendment to direct the Department of Education to create best practices for our educator's to teach our students how to navigate these situations. I look forward to working with my Republican colleagues on strengthening our nation's commitment to preventing sexual abuse and supporting survivors. View full PR

Mr. Speaker, I move to amend the bill as follows: SECTION VIII. ENACTMENT Preventative Education This bill shall come into effect following it's constitutional passage. 1. Directs the US Department of Education to issue best practice guidance to schools and universities on sexual assault prevention education including: a) Best practices for teachers educating students on bystander Intervention. b) Best practices for teachers educating students on defining and recognizing consent. SECTION IX. ENACTMENT This bill shall come into effect following it's constitutional passage.

Done.
