Fox News
Rep. Andy Barr, R-Ky., on Friday reintroduced legislation to form a committee to look into China's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"Over one year and 600,000 tragic American deaths later, we still don’t know the origins of the COVID-19 virus," Barr, who serves on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said in a statement to Fox News. "That is why Congress needs to establish a bicameral, bipartisan investigation that will gain the trust and confidence of the American people to deliver the truth about COVID-19." He added that there can be "no more delays and no more partisan inquiries." The resolution would establish the formation of a joint select committee "on the events and activities" surrounding China's handling of the virus that would include 10 members from the House and 10 members from the Senate appointed by the majority and minority leaders of each chamber.
