GOP Lawmaker Seeks to Ban Incoming Trans Colleague from Using Women’s Bathroom

HeadlineNov 20, 2024

Republican Congressmember Nancy Mace has introduced a resolution to ban transgender women from using women’s bathrooms in the U.S. Capitol following the historic election of Sarah McBride, who recently became the first openly transgender candidate elected to Congress. McBride will represent Delaware in the House beginning in January. McBride called the resolution “a blatant attempt from far right-wing extremists to distract from the fact that they have no real solutions to what Americans are facing.”
