Rep. Mann Demands Answers on Origins of COVID-19

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Tracey Mann (KS-01) voted yes on S. 619, legislation requiring the Director of National Intelligence to declassify information relating to the origins of COVID-19.

“The COVID-19 Pandemic put the world on hold for two years,” said Rep. Mann. “The American people deserve to have all available information regarding COVID-19’s origins. The Director of National Intelligence should make all information about the origins of COVID–19 available so that the United States and like-minded countries can work to prevent a similar pandemic from occurring again and to hold bad-acting countries or entities accountable.” 

S. 619 requires the Director of National Intelligence to declassify and make all information relating to potential links between the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the origin of COVID-19. This legislationpassed unanimously in the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate.
