Delaware Rep.-elect Sarah McBride has become the target of South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace, who introduced a resolution to prevent trans women from using the women's restroom on Capitol Hill.

Delaware state Sen. Sarah McBride, elected this month as the first openly transgender member of Congress, called U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace’s attempts to keep her out of women’s facilities at the U.S. Capitol a distraction.

G.O.P. lawmakers whose leaders have pressed to roll back transgender rights around the country moved to bar Sarah McBride, the first transgender member of Congress, from women’s rooms on Capitol Hill.
