Gasps could be heard from the gallery after the Republican state senator asked a trans health care professional about her genitalia.
this week when he asked a transgender health care professional about her genitals at a hearing on a bill that would prohibit gender-affirming care for minors.
“You said that you’re a trans woman?” Republican state Sen. Matt McKee asked Herzig. “Do you have a penis?”"That's horrible," Herzig said, after taking a few moments to gather herself."I don't know what my rights are, but that question was horribly inappropriate." "Any other question I was expecting other than what I got," Herzig, 33, said in a phone interview with NBC News."It was probably the most publicly humiliating thing I've ever gone through."The exchange prompted outrage on social media from trans activists and the state's Democrats.
