"Arrest me. Take me to jail." Mace brings handcuffs to the House floor
During her February 10, 2025 House floor speech, Rep. Nancy Mace said she had been told she would be investigated and could be arrested for coming forward, then held up a pair of handcuffs and told the chamber: 'If anyone would like to arrest me for standing up for women, here are my wrists. Arrest me. Take me to jail.' Nearly a year later she repeated the offer in a written statement to the court in Berg v. Bryant. The men she has accused deny the allegations and the civil litigation is ongoing.
