A coalition of state attorneys general is investigating Dr. Anthony Fauci’s role in the COVID-19 pandemic response and demanding accountability for what they say is alleged mismanagement, misleading statements and suppression of scientific debate.
In a letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-Louisiana, and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-South Dakota, the attorneys general from Republican states commend ongoing congressional efforts to uncover misconduct. They want congressional leaders to continue their investigative efforts and ensure that all responsible parties are held accountable at the federal and state levels.
“President Biden’s blanket pardon of Dr. Fauci is a shameful attempt to prevent accountability,” South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson said in a release. “If any of these findings indicate violations of state laws, we are fully prepared to take appropriate action to ensure justice is served.”
The letter follows the release of the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic’s final report, which details widespread failures and potential misconduct by high-ranking government officials, including Fauci. The report highlights misleading public statements regarding COVID-19’s origins, mismanagement of National Institutes of Health funding, and efforts to suppress scientific discussions about vaccine risks.
Former President Joe Biden pardoned Fauci on his way out the door.
