Nancy Mace Proposes Transgender Bathroom Ban at Capitol

Rep. Nancy Mace has introduced a resolution requiring individuals in the Capitol complex to use bathrooms corresponding to their gender assigned at birth, coinciding with the upcoming swearing-in of Sarah McBride, the first openly transgender House member. Mace plans to include the measure in the rules package for the 119th Congress or pursue a privileged motion if necessary. The proposal has sparked controversy, with enforcement details remaining unclear and potential challenges from LGBTQ+ rights activists.
