Some Republicans are officially moving to give Rep.-elect Sarah McBride an unwelcome arrival to the House.
Rep. Nancy Mace introduced a resolution to ban trangender women from using the women’s restroom in the Capitol and any of the House office buildings. The South Carolina Republican told reporters that she was specifically introducing the bill because of McBride — who is set to be the first openly trans member of Congress — though it would likely impact any transgender person who works at the Capitol.
McBride “does not get a say in this at all,” Mace said. “She was born a biological male, she should use the men’s restroom. That’s how it should work.”
