She says the violence and threats prove her point that women need to be kept safe.
Representative Nancy Mace of South Carolina was attacked by a pro-transgender activist on Tuesday evening at the Rayburn House Office Building. Her arm was injured in the attack.
The Capitol Police stated, “Just before 6:00 p.m., the Member of Congress’ office reported an incident in the Rayburn House Office Building. House Division officers, and agents with the Threat Assessment Section, tracked down the suspect.”
The congresswoman, who has received numerous threats for her efforts to protect women’s spaces from transgender individuals, stated, “I was physically accosted tonight on Capitol grounds over my fight to protect women. Capitol police have arrested him. All the violence and threats keep proving our point. Women deserve to be safe. Your threats will not stop my fight for women!”
Representative Mace recently introduced the “Protecting Women’s Private Spaces Act,“ which seeks to “prohibit individuals from accessing or using single-sex facilities on federal property other than those corresponding to their biological sex, and for other purposes.“
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For the safety of Congresswoman Mace and other advocates of safe spaces for women.
- For Capitol Hill police as they provide security for members of the House and Senate.
