Rep. Nancy Mace's questioning of D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser over defining "woman" sparked a heated exchange at a House hearing.
At a House Oversight Committee hearing on D.C. crime, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) questioned D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser on defining "woman" under D.C. law, prompting a sharp response from Bowser, who stated, "I'm a woman," and asked the chair to curb Mace's line of questioning.
The exchange, part of broader political tensions over D.C.'s policies and President Trump’s federal "crime emergency" declaration, drew attention to Mace's repeated use of the "What is a woman?"
question, often seen as a rhetorical tactic.
The incident followed Mace’s failed effort to censure Rep. Ilhan Omar, marking another high-profile clash in her ongoing confrontations with Democratic lawmakers.
