Rep. Nancy Mace Issues Statement on Fauci Contempt Vote

August 6, 2026

WASHINGTON, D.C., (August 6, 2026) - Today, Congresswoman Nancy Mace released the following statement in response to the Senate Homeland Security Committee's vote to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress:

“Americans lost their jobs. Businesses were destroyed. Kids spent years behind masks. Families said goodbye to loved ones through plexiglass.

“Anthony Fauci helped make every one of those calls and now refuses to answer for it. Today, the Senate Homeland Security Committee voted to hold him in contempt of Congress.

“A Biden pardon doesn't erase the truth. It doesn't erase the consequences. It doesn't erase the MILLIONS of lives destroyed by his lockdowns and lies.

“Fauci helped make these decisions. Now he needs to answer for them.

“The American people deserve the truth.”
