On Tuesday’s episode of NBC’s *MTP Now*, host and Washington Correspondent Yamiche Alcindor criticized Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) for what she described as “baseless accusations” against Rep.-Elect Sarah McBride (D-DE). The remarks came as Mace introduced a resolution barring individuals from using single-sex facilities in the U.S. Capitol and House Office Buildings unless they correspond to their biological sex, effectively restricting transgender women from accessing women’s restrooms.
Alcindor stated, “Republican Rep. Nancy Mace has ignited a fierce debate on Capitol Hill after introducing a resolution that would ban transgender women from using female bathrooms at the U.S. Capitol. It comes just weeks before Rep.-Elect Sarah McBride (D-DE) is set to become the first openly transgender member of Congress. Last night, Mace misgendered McBride when she baselessly accused her of being ‘a biological man trying to force himself into women’s spaces.’”
The resolution explicitly limits access to single-sex facilities to individuals based on their biological sex. Critics argue that its implementation inherently labels transgender women as not being biologically female, sparking controversy and debate over gender identity and inclusion in government facilities.
