Nancy Mace confronts Jasmine Crockett during heated House hearing, suggesting to settle the matter outside.


A heated exchange occurred between Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., and Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, during a House hearing about civil and transgender rights. Crockett criticized Mace’s rhetoric on transgender people, leading Mace to challenge Crockett to “take it outside.” Despite Rep. Maxwell Frost defending Crockett and claiming Mace incited violence, committee chair James Comer ruled Mace’s remark was not a call to violence but potentially a way to continue the conversation off the floor. Both representatives took to social media to defend themselves, with Mace clarifying that she did not intend to fight and wanted a more constructive conversation. Crockett described feeling threatened and called Mace an attention-seeking loser.

Mace has been known for her actions against transgender rights, introducing a measure to ban transgender women from female bathrooms on Capitol Hill, specifically targeting Rep. Sarah McBride, the first openly transgender member of Congress. In a previous incident in the same committee room, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene made personal insults towards Crockett, which were not ruled to be in violation of committee rules. Overall, the heated exchange between Mace and Crockett highlights ongoing tensions and disagreements around civil and transgender rights within the House of Representatives.
