Rep. Beth Van Duyne, R-Texas, vowed on Newsmax Wednesday to be a co-sponsor of the bill of her fellow Republican congresswoman, South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace, barring transgender women from using the women’s restroom on Capitol Hill.

Van Duyne told “National Report” that “I already told Nance that I would be a co-sponsor of the bill. I think it is ridiculous that we’re having to actually even have this argument. Men goes to men’s rooms, women go to women’s rooms. This is not rocket science. The fact that we even have to define this and there is going to be a fight is ridiculous.”

The legislation comes after Delaware elected earlier this month the first openly transgender member of Congress, Democrat Rep.-elect Sarah McBride.
