> A Senate committee is voting on whether to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress. The action concerns his refusal to answer questions at a hearing last week. That hearing examined his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. The panel will also decide whether to refer the matter to the Justice Department for possible prosecution.
