"The federal agency’s investigation was triggered by a complaint last week from #HumanRights Campaign, a national #LGBTQ+ advocacy group.
“We are deeply concerned about the failure of #Owasso High School to address documented instances of #bullying, violence, and harassment against #Nex...” HRC President Kelley Robinson wrote in a Feb. 21 letter to Education Secretary Miguel Cardona."

The Department of Education is opening an investigation into #Owasso Public Schools where student #Nex #Benedict, a member of the #2SLGBTQ community, got in a fight with several other students the day before they #died, according to a letter from the agency obtained by ABC News.
The investigation follows a complaint from the Human Rights Campaign alleging that the District discriminated against students by failing to respond appropriately to sex-based #harassment at Owasso High School during the 2023-2024 school year. -

Nex told her that they & another #transgender student at #Owasso HS had been in a fight w/3 older girls in a girls bathroom. Nex was knocked to the ground during the fight & hit their head on the floor….

This year, [Oklahoma] legislators already have proposed >50 anti-LGBTQ+ laws — more than any other state, according to the ACLU.
The man who heads #PublicEducation in #Oklahoma is also a vocal critic of #LGBTQ+ rights. Superintendent #RyanWalters appointed #ChayaRaichik — the #conservative activist behind #LibsOfTikTok, which has targeted LGBTQ-friendly teachers at #Owasso schools — to a state library advisory board.#NexBenedict #HumanRights #HateCrime #gender #identity #sex #nonbinary #law

#Owasso is a Tulsa suburb of about 40k in the NE corner of #Oklahoma, a #conservative state where #LGBTQ+ issues are lightning rods of controversy.
Last year, #Republican Gov #KevinStitt signed an executive order defining an individual’s sex as the “biological sex” at birth. Laws took effect requiring students to use bathrooms that match their sex assigned at birth & restricting #gender-affirming care for trans youths.#NexBenedict #identity #sex #nonbinary #HumanRights #HateCrime #law

The death of the 16-year-old Oklahoman is raising new fears about the connection between anti-LGBTQ rhetoric and policies and deadly real-world violence.
