Mike Johnson Says Trans-Identifying Men Can’t Use Women’s Bathrooms In Capitol: Report

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has reportedly said that trans-identifying men will not be allowed to use the women’s restrooms in the U.S. Capitol.

Johnson made the announcement to the GOP conference on Tuesday, POLITICO reported.

“He said there’s not going to be any biological men using our restrooms,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) told the outlet.

“It’s pretty aggressive for biological men to be invading our spaces,” Greene said.

The speaker’s comments come after Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) introduced a bill to keep Sarah McBride, a trans-identifying man who will represent Delaware in the House next year, from using the women’s bathrooms at the Capitol.

McBride will be the first ever trans-identifying member of Congress.

Mace’s bill would prohibit House members and staffers from “using single-sex facilities other than those corresponding to their biological sex” in the Capitol and House office buildings.

The prohibition would be enforced by the House sergeant-at-arms, according to the bill.

“Sarah McBride doesn’t get a say in this. If you’re a biological man, you shouldn’t be in women’s restrooms,” Mace told reporters Monday.

Democrats accused Mace of “bullying” the member of Congress-elect.

“This is not just bigotry, this is just plain bullying,” Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said.

Speaker Johnson said at a press conference on Tuesday that there were concerns about trans-identifying men using restrooms and noted that “Congress has never had to address before.”

Gender ideology loomed large over the presidential election this year. President-elect Donald Trump frequently mentioned biological men in women’s sports during his rallies.

Three-fourths of Americans think biological males who identify as women should not be allowed to use the women’s locker rooms, showers, and bathrooms, a new survey from Napolitan News Service found.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
