The House Oversight Committee's first meeting of the 119th Congress took a contentious turn on Tuesday as members engaged in a heated debate over the reinstatement of the committee's subcommittee on civil rights and civil liberties.
During the meeting, Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett proposed an amendment to reinstate the disbanded subcommittee, which sparked a sharp exchange between Crockett and GOP Rep. Nancy Mace. Mace criticized Democrats for their stance on transgender women, accusing them of disregarding women's rights and privacy.
