On a day meant to memorialize those who have been murdered as as a result of transphobia, Rep. Nancy Mace has decided to honor Trans Day of Remembrance by trying to ban transwomen from using bathrooms on all federal property.
A uniquely bigoted choice, IMO.

It's OK Statehood Day. Admitted in 1907, the credit is owed to the Sequoyah Constitutional Convention, who sought statehood for Indian Territory. A GOP president & Congress blocked it, favoring white settlers in Oklahoma Territory and forcing a merger that hurt tribal sovereignty. #OklahomaBlueDot 🔵
