Summary

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) introduced a resolution to ban transgender women from using female bathrooms in the Capitol, citing “women’s rights” and opposing the “radical left.”

The move comes ahead of Rep.-elect Sarah McBride (D-Del.), the first openly transgender member of Congress, taking office.

McBride criticized the measure as a divisive distraction from real issues like housing and healthcare costs.

LGBTQ advocates condemned the resolution as discriminatory, aligning it with broader Republican anti-trans policies emphasized in their platform and political ads.

    So long as I’ve got regular access to a god damned urinal I’m okay with this. Putem in the stalls, put em nearby, fuck it put em in the hall way just don’t take them away from me.

    I get that sitting is probably better for you, but I don’t always want to take the time sit and pee, and I’m tall enough that peeing into a toilet causes serious splash back problems pretty much no matter what.
