(OPINION) Montana state Rep. Zooey Zephyr — a Democrat who identifies as a “progressive, bisexual trans woman” — claimed that transgender women are “every bit as ‘biologically female’ as cis women.”
“I literally just got out of meetings with members of Congress & used the bathroom on my way out. Trans women are women—full stop,” Zephyr declared in a post on X.
“We’re every bit as “biologically female” as cis women & @SpeakerJohnson’s statement doesn’t change the fact that women’s spaces include trans women,” Zephyr added. Fox News Digital attempted to reach out to Zephyr for comment on Thursday.
Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Mike Johnson, R-La., said in a statement issued on Wednesday that single-sex facilities in the Capitol and House office buildings are for members of the corresponding biological sex.
“All single-sex facilities in the Capitol and House Office Buildings — such as restrooms, changing rooms, and locker rooms — are reserved for individuals of that biological sex,” he said in the statement.
“It is important to note that each Member office has its own private restroom, and unisex restrooms are available throughout the Capitol,” Johnson added. “Women deserve women’s only spaces.”
U.S. Rep.-elect Sarah McBride, a Democratic Delaware state senator, will become the first openly transgender member of the U.S. Congress after being sworn in to office next year.
“I’m not here to fight about bathrooms. I’m here to fight for Delawareans and to bring down costs facing families. Like all members, I will follow the rules as outlined by Speaker Johnson, even if I disagree with them,” McBride said in a statement.
