Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and other members of the Democratic Women’s Working Group held a press conference expressing their disapproval of an Education Department official’s remarks regarding sexual assaults on college campuses. Candice Jackson, head of the Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights, had told the New York Times, that “the accusations - 90 percent of them - fall into the category of 'we were both drunk.'” Though Ms. Jackson later apologized for the remarks, the lawmakers at the press conference said it was part of a pattern of dismissive behavior toward sexual assault victims by Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and others in the Education Department. close
