Senator Rand Paul is holding a vote on whether to find Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress. This follows Dr. Fauci's invocation of the Fifth Amendment during a committee hearing last week, where he declined to answer multiple questions related to his management of the COVID-19 pandemic. A contempt finding could lead to an investigation into the legitimacy of Dr. Fauci's constitutional right against self-incrimination.
