Nancy Mace tried to sell transphobic wrapping paper & failed miserably
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) claims that she tried to have transphobic wrapping paper made but that the vendors she contacted refused to make it because it was offensive.Mace, who has been making headlines for the past month because of her crusade against Rep.-elect Sarah McBride (D-DE), the first trans person elected to Congress, posted on social media that she tried to get wrapping paper made, presumably to sell to raise campaign funds. She posted a picture of the wrapping paper and it had a pattern that alternated between a graphic that reads, No [picture of balls] in our stalls, and her campaign logo.

In one, she denounced trans rights protestors at the Capitol by calling them tr***ies.The tr***ies came, they saw, and they did not conquer during their protest, she wrote.A sitting Congresswomen using a disgusting and bigoted slur about Americans who staged a nonviolent protest, responded Rep.

She said that she read criminal profiles and studies before church this past Sunday and learned that men who commit voyeurism are dangerous and should be treated as such.Mace called trans people slurs in a video she posted to social media last week. This comes a month after she introduced a resolution to stop McBride from using the womens facilities at the Capitol and a bill to ban trans people from using the appropriate restroom on all federal property. Mace has been using transphobia to build her political career since before she was elected to Congress. In her first campaign for Congress, she made up a law that she claimed required transgender equality in the military, said that her Democratic opponent was responsible for it, and said that it would result in a Marine Corps base in her district getting shut down. It was all a lie there was no such law and the Marine base is still in operation today but it helped her secure her seat in Congress.In her second run for Congress, she accused her opponent of providing SEX CHANGE SURGERY. PUBERTY BLOCKERS. GENDER CHANGING HORMONES. FOR CHILDREN? in an ad, even though her opponent was a doctor who worked at a hospital that didnt provide gender-affirming care for trans people at all. Her opponent was forced to resign from her job.Mace has a poor record on LGBTQ+ rights in Congress, getting scores of 15 and 14 out of 100 on HRCs Congressional Scorecard, and she even voted against the Equality Act, which would ban discrimination against LGBTQ+ people at the federal level, and against reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act because it would give some protections to transgender inmates.In her effort to stop McBride from using the womens restrooms at the Capitol, Mace has referred toMcBride as it and as a man. She has also startedselling anti-trans t-shirtsand saidthat its offensivethat McBride thinks shes equal to other congresswomen.Subscribe to theLGBTQ Nation newsletterand be the first to know about the latest headlines shaping LGBTQ+ communities worldwide.
