Ernst Works to Permanently Defund Wuhan Lab

Press Release

Date: Aug. 1, 2023
Location: Washington D.C.
Issues: Government Operations Science Health and Health Care

"We successfully pulled the plug on U.S. taxpayer funding to China's Wuhan Institute and Russia's labs--for now. The AFAR Act will guarantee not another penny will be spent subsidizing crazy and dangerous experiments, like putting cats on a treadmill or enhancing bat coronaviruses in Russia and China ever again. I applaud Reps. Lisa McClain and Don Davis as well as the White Coat Waste Project for their efforts exposing and putting an end to this whacky Washington waste."
