We’ve told you about the how the notorious non-profit group EcoHealth Alliance funneled tax dollars to the Wuhan Animal Lab for dangerous coronavirus experiments on animals that many experts—and a majority of Americans—believe caused the pandemic. And a supermajority wants Congress to get answers, stat.

Remember that we busted EcoHealth for repeatedly violating federal law by failing to disclose how much of your money it sent to the Wuhan lab. It ignored safety precautions when capturing wild bats for experiments, too. And new reports show that the group wanted to supercharge coronaviruses and release them into the wild!

So, it might not surprise you that EcoHealth has refused to answer questions from Congress about the dangerous gain-of-function animal experiments it shipped our tax dollars to and conducted in cooperation with the Wuhan Animal Lab.

But, Congress has the authority to compel EcoHealth to answer questions by issuing a subpoena, and that’s what a supermajority of taxpayers wants to see.

A September 2021 national poll of 1,000 taxpayers conducted by Lincoln Park Strategies found that 75% of Democrats and Republicans want EcoHealth to be subpoenaed by Congress to testify about the bat coronavirus experiments it was involved with at the Wuhan Animal Lab.
