In the ongoing struggle over bathrooms on Capitol Hill, Representative Nancy Mace of South Carolina has intensified her anti-transgender views by putting out new legislation pertaining to bathrooms.
Republican Mace wrote, “Oh, you thought threatening me would keep me quiet?” in a post on X. No. To protect women and girls nationwide on all federal property, I have doubled down and filed a new law.
The Protecting Women’s Private Spaces Act would forbid anyone from utilizing locker rooms, changing areas, or single-sex restrooms on federal property unless they match their biological sex.
Any structure or piece of land controlled by a government organization, like the USPS or the Department of Defense, is considered federal property. This includes establishments like national parks and museums.
Additionally, the bill’s definition of federal property includes property owned by the governments of US territories as well as the municipal government of Washington, D.C.
The bill would prohibit transgender men and women from using gender-neutral restrooms if it were to become law.
The Transgender Day of Remembrance, which has been observed annually on November 20 since 1999 to remember transgender people who have experienced violence, was in line with Mace’s legislation.
Mace presented her bill in response to a second resolution that aimed to prohibit transgender personnel and members of Congress from using gender-conforming restrooms at the Capitol.
Mace has made it clear that she planned the move for Sarah McBride, the newly elected representative from Delaware, who will begin office in January.
McBride was the first American to speak at a national political party convention in 2016, the first to intern at the White House in 2012, and the first openly transgender member of Congress.
In response to Mace’s suggestion, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson said he was in favor of measures to ban transgender women from using women’s toilets on Capitol Hill.
Johnson added that there are unisex restrooms available throughout the Capitol and private restrooms in each member office.
Democratic candidate McBride has merely stated in a statement that she is not here to argue over restrooms and that the whole matter is a Republican-initiated diversion from more important matters.
Mace blasted the woke crowd in a statement released on Wednesday for the radical left’s expected feigned anger and boasted:
