Rep. Nancy Mace and Rep. Jasmine Crockett engaged in a heated exchange during a House hearing on civil rights and transgender rights. The argument stemmed from Crockett's criticism of Mace's rhetoric on transgender issues, leading to Mace challenging Crockett to 'take it outside'. While Rep. Comer ruled that Mace's remark wasn't a call to violence, the incident sparked debate and drew social media responses from both lawmakers.
Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., and Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, got into a heated exchange at a House hearing Tuesday that culminated with Mace challenging Crockett by asking whether she wanted to “take it outside.” The war of words came during a discussion of civil rights and transgender rights, with Crockett calling for re-establishing a subcommittee on civil rights and criticizing Mace’s rhetoric about transgender people.
“Let me be clear: I wanted to take the conversation off the floor to have a more constructive conversation, not to fight. At no point was there any intention of causing harm to anyone,” she wrote in one post. Crockett said on X that she had been threatened, and she called Mace “an attention seeking loser.” “Last I checked, threatening members in a committee room doesn’t exactly reduce the cost of eggs,” she wrote. Mace in recent months has become known for her actions toward transgender people.
