So that’s not exactly true.
There are around 40 offices in the Capitol Building, each of which has a private restroom. The rest of the members have offices in nearby buildings.
There are also private, members only restrooms in non-public areas of the building. These are single occupancy rooms.
Multi-occupancy restrooms are for staff and the public.
This whole thing is absurd theater. McBride has been offered access to several private restrooms, so there’s no reason for her to go into a public, multi-occupancy restroom.
McBride never went inside and expressed that she will comply with the ban. I agree it's theatrics to cause a commotion though.
