on Monday that the origins of COVID-19 was a top priority for Republicans when they took control of the House of Representatives in January.
"A lot of Republicans have looked at [the subcommittee] in terms of giving credibility to some of those statements that have been made by several Republicans since beginning of COVID three years ago," Ferguson said.Republicans feel they are finally having their moment to shed light on some of this. Overall, Republicans are happy to just have this conversation because I think many feel this conversation has not been had or at least not been given the attention it should have received.
Ferguson said the discoveries by the subcommittee could extend past COVID-19, further affecting China's relationship with the U.S. and with other countries.
