Senate committee votes to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress

A US Senate committee has voted to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress, escalating a long-running effort by Republican lawmakers to investigate his role in the federal response to Covid-19. The vote follows Fauci's refusals to comply with committee demands, including requests for testimony and records related to pandemic-era decisions and federal research funding. The move now heads toward a possible full Senate or Justice Department decision on enforcement.

Why now: Lawmakers moved to compel testimony and documents from Fauci, reviving controversy over the government's Covid-19 response.
