The bill, known as the COVID-19 Origin Act of 2023, specifically aims to investigate the possibility that the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, leaked from a lab in Wuhan, China.
Republican Sens. Mike Braun and Josh Hawley reintroduced the bill on Monday after the Department of Energy (DOE) provided a classified intelligence report to the White House and certain members of Congress, which concluded that the COVID-19 pandemic most likely arose from a lab leak. The FBI had previously come to a similar conclusion.
Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) made a request for unanimous consent of the bill, which was granted “without objection.” Unanimous consent enables a bill to pass without a recorded vote.
No matter what origin theory one personally supports, full disclosure of all known facts and data can only be beneficial. No more government secrets—they are not helping anyone.
Hey, look at what the other side is saying about the lab-leak...from Scientific American magazine.... Lab-Leak Intelligence Reports Aren’t Scientific Conclusions
Intelligence reports supporting the lab-leak theory for COVID are not based in science
I've always been a fan of "self-evident rights." Our government never had a "right" to keep a secret; any secret. Government is supposed to be our servant. Would you continue to pay a servant who keeps a secret from you that involves your own affairs? Something fishy is always behind government insistence on keeping any secret.

Not an accidental lab leak, but a deliberate bioweapon release, possible because of Fauci's gain of function funding. See how they spin the narrative.
Orchestrated
Not sure anything will come of it.
Will they go after Fauci, Collins et al or will they let them off?
Yep, except it will be a lie, but it will be declassified.
