Scalise leads House GOP in demanding Pelosi direct committee chairs to investigate coronavirus origins
Fox News
EXCLUSIVE: House Republican Whip Steve Scalise and more than 200 House Republicans called on Speaker Nancy Pelosi to direct committee chairs to investigate the origins of COVID-19 and devote congressional investigatory resources to examining claims that the novel coronavirus pandemic stemmed from a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and that the Chinese Communist Party “covered it up.”
"We request that you instruct the appropriate Democrat committee chairs to immediately join Republican calls to hold the Chinese Communist Party accountable for its role in causing the global COVID-19 pandemic," Scalise and Republicans wrote, adding that there "is mounting evidence the pandemic started in a Chinese lab, and the CCP covered it up." "If that’s the case, the CCP is responsible for the deaths of almost 600,000 Americans and millions more worldwide," they wrote. "These questions about the CCP’s liability are not a diversion, as you falsely claimed."
