Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) isn’t backing down in the face of liberal outrage and threats over her bold stance on Capitol Hill bathrooms. Mace introduced a bill ensuring that bathrooms in the Capitol correspond to the biological sex of lawmakers, effectively barring Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE), the first transgender member of Congress, from using the women’s facilities.
The move comes as Republicans, fresh off their recent election victories, aim to push back against what they see as “woke nonsense” around gender identity. Mace’s measure has already sparked fierce backlash, with Democrats labeling it “cruel” and activists escalating their attacks, reportedly including death threats against Mace.
When an ABC News reporter attempted to corner Mace on the Capitol steps, she delivered a sharp rebuttal, defending her bill with unapologetic clarity. “This isn’t about feelings; it’s about science,” she said, leaving the reporter visibly stunned. Mace, a Citadel graduate known for her toughness, made it clear that threats and insults would not deter her from standing up for what she believes is common sense.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has expressed openness to the resolution, stating, “We’re working on the issue.” Meanwhile, Democrats like Rep. Becca Balint (D-VT) have called the measure a “cruel” attack on transgender rights, but Mace isn’t fazed. “The cruelty,” she fired back, “is subjecting women to this nonsense in the first place.”

"Let me be unequivocally clear. A man is a man, and a woman is a woman. And a man cannot become a woman."

Mace’s stance reflects the frustrations of many Americans who feel their voices have been drowned out by political correctness. While the debate rages, one thing is clear: Mace isn’t just making headlines—she’s making a stand.
Mace says she has been getting death threats over her push to ban incoming transgender Democratic Rep.-elect Sarah McBride and others from using female restrooms inside the Capitol.
The backlash came after Mace unveiled a new bathroom bill resolution earlier week that seeks to prevent trans women from using the female restrooms on Capitol Hill — arguing she wasn’t going to stand for “someone with a penis in the women’s locker room.”
“They are threatening to kill me over this. Men that want to use women’s restrooms are threatening to kill me over this issue,” Mace told News Nation’s “On Balance” late Tuesday.
