Nancy Mace, a Republican member of Congress who was a key vote in ousting Kevin McCarthy as House of Representatives speaker, has donned a white T-shirt with a red letter “A” on it to symbolize her being “demonized” for her decision.
“I’m wearing the scarlet letter after the week I just had, being a woman up here, and being demonized for my vote and for my voice,” Mace told reporters on Tuesday, adding: “I will do the right thing every single time, no matter the consequences.”
