Nancy Mace's Shift from LGBTQ Ally to Anti-Trans Advocate

TL;DR Summary
Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace introduced a resolution to ban transgender women from using restrooms that don't align with their birth-assigned sex in the House, targeting Sarah McBride, the first openly transgender person elected to Congress. Despite Mace's previous support for LGBTQ+ rights, this move aligns with a conservative strategy to use transgender issues as a political wedge. McBride, focusing on her constituents, stated she will follow the rules but emphasized her legislative priorities over bathroom debates.
