Shortly after she was elected, Mace mounted a campaign to prevent McBride from using the womens room in the Capitol complex despite trans people having visited the Capitol for decades without incident. Mace posted several messages a day to social media attacking McBride and trans people as she tried to get resolutions passed preventing trans people from using the restrooms associated with their gender identities. And Mace dehumanized McBride by referring to her with the non-human pronoun it.Shes not a woman! Its aman! Mace said on Scripps News in November. Mace has also repeatedly used anti-trans slurson social media, atcampaign events, andat the Capitol. The point of slurs is to dehumanize people.And its not just her trans colleague that Mace has attacked. She also threatened to beat up Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) when Crockett called out her transphobia. If you wanna take it outside, we can do that! Mace shouted at Crockett in a House Oversight hearing in January.Outside of her colleagues, Mace posted a video of herself yelling expletives at a gay man who asked her if she would be hosting any town halls this year.
