Texas GOP Representative Keith Self abruptly ended what was probably the shortest ever House hearing following a tense exchange between himself and Representative Bill Keating, D-Mass. The exchange happened after Self referred to transgender Representative Sarah McBride, D-Del as "Mr. McBride." McBride quickly and wittingly replied back with “Thank You, Madame Chair” before Keating, who clearly was not going to allow a duely elected Representative to be mocked, demanded the Chairman introduce McBride the right way.
McBride is the first openly transgender person to be elected to congress and has faced attacks on her identity from Republicans.
