16. Someone should educate Congresswoman Mace on what a "bill of attainder" is when she targeted one person or group

Her bill, if it ever passed the House and the Senate and was signed by the President would probably be declared unconstitutional as a bill of attainder against transgendered people. Her own words about when she initiated the bill and who she was targeting with it would be the core of any lawsuit to have it declared unconstitutional.
