Marjorie Taylor Greene Misgenders First Openly Trans Congresswoman Sarah McBride: 'He's A Man'
Marjorie Taylor Greene repeatedly misgendered Delaware state Senator Sarah McBride, a trans woman, in a video clip that has circulated online.On Monday, Greene was asked by a reporter for comment on fellow Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace's resolution which seeks to ban transgender women from using women's bathrooms at the U.S.
Capitol. The proposal comes ahead of McBride's arrival in Washington, D.C., where she will make history as the first openly transgender member of Congress.A video of the interview with Pablo Manríquez shared on X, formerly Twitter, sees the Georgia Republican refer to McBride as "a man," and "he" multiple times.Newsweek has contacted the offices of Greene and McBride for comment outside of standard working hours via email.In the video, Greene was asked by Manríquez if she would support Mace's resolution.Greene replied, "I support a resolution that keeps all biological men out of women's bathrooms, locker rooms, and private places.
Not only here in the Capitol complex, our office buildings, but all taxpayer-funded facilities."Greene was then asked how one would "check if someone is qualified to use the ladies' restroom?
Obviously there's a new transgender member of Congress.""Which is a man," said Greene. "He's a man. He's a biological male. So he is not allowed to use our women's restrooms, our women's gym, our locker rooms and spaces that are specified for women."He's a biological male," Greene continued. "He's got plenty of places he can go."Greene was also asked whether "they should make gender-neutral bathrooms.""No," Greene responded. "He can go in the men's room and he has a bathroom in his office just like all of us do."She added: "I use to restroom most of the time in my office.
