Summary

During a House Oversight Committee hearing, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) repeatedly shouted an anti-trans slur despite objections from Democratic Rep. Gerald Connolly.

She defended her remarks by attacking transgender rights and dismissing criticism.

The outburst drew condemnation from LGBTQ+ advocates and political figures, highlighting her shift from previously supporting LGBTQ+ rights to embracing anti-trans rhetoric.

Mace has used the slur in past statements and introduced legislation restricting transgender rights.

    I actually read the article and clicked on the link to the hearing back and forth and can’t find what the anti trans slur was. Honestly I can’t think of what an anti trans slur would be so I guess its possible I somehow missed it but I assumed it would be obvious.
