Transgender activists, including Chelsea Manning, protest new Capitol Hill restroom policy, leading to arrests.

Transgender rights activists, including Chelsea Manning, protested a new Capitol Hill policy requiring individuals to use restrooms that match their biological sex, not their gender identity. The policy was introduced by House Speaker Mike Johnson after Sarah McBride became the first openly transgender person elected to Congress. During the protest, over a dozen activists were arrested for protesting inside the Cannon House Office Building, which is against D.C. law.
