    Johnson really does need to get over his obsession with other people’s crotches. It’s really creepy, especially when it extends to his children.

      No offense, but just read the article, it’s discussed in the 2nd paragraph.

      Under a policy renewed on Friday by House Speaker Mike Johnson, transgender people will be prohibited from using single-sex bathrooms that correspond with their gender in areas belonging to the House of Representatives. The policy, which states that “all single-sex facilities — such as restrooms, changing rooms, and locker rooms — are reserved for individuals of that biological sex,” is now in effect.

      Although earlier reports indicated that the policy was not officially part of the House rules package passed on Friday during the first session, the ban was listed among Speaker Johnson’s policies for the 119th Congress, as reflected in the Congressional Record, a daily account of congressional proceedings.

      If your question is can they just do that, then the answer seems like yes they can.
