We're not going to have men in women's bathrooms,' House Speaker Mike Johnson declares after first transgender person is elected to Congress.

Republican Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina has introduced a controversial bill to ban transgender individuals from using Capitol Hill bathrooms that align their gender identity.

On one side of the Capitol, Republican Rep. Nancy Mace vowed to “stand in the way” of Democratic Rep.-elect Sarah McBride, the first out transgender woman elected to Congress, using women’s bathrooms in the US Capitol.

The South Carolina Republican’s resolution comes two weeks after the historic election of Democrat Sarah McBride, a trans woman, to Congress.

Republican Rep. Nancy Mace said Tuesday that the bill she introduced to ban transgender women from using women's restrooms at the U.S. Capitol was "absolutely" in response to Rep.-elect Sarah McBride's entering Congress.

House Speaker Mike Johnson signaled support Tuesday for a Republican effort to ban Democrat Sarah McBride — the first transgender person to be elected to Congress — from using women’s restrooms in the Capitol once she’s sworn into office next year.

The restriction, if passed by the full House, would go into effect in January just as Congress’s first trans lawmaker, Democratic Rep.-elect Sarah McBride of Delaware, begins her term.
