Dr. Anthony Fauci is now facing possible prison time after Senate Republicans voted to hold him in contempt of Congress and refer him to the Department of Justice (DOJ) for criminal prosecution.
The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, chaired by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), approved the explosive contempt resolution Thursday morning in an 8-7 party-line vote.
Every Republican voted to hold Fauci accountable.
Every Democrat voted against the referral.
The vote came after Fauci defied a congressional subpoena and pleaded the Fifth Amendment more than 100 times rather than answer questions about COVID-19, dangerous gain-of-function research, the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and his previous testimony under oath.
The matter will now be sent to federal prosecutors.
If convicted of contempt of Congress, Fauci could face up to one year in prison and a fine of up to $100,000.
‘A Subpoena Is Not an Invitation’
Paul delivered a blistering warning before the committee voted to refer Fauci for prosecution.
“A subpoena is not an invitation,” Paul declared.
“A subpoena with no consequences is not a subpoena; it’s a suggestion.
“Seeking the truth is not a witch hunt.
“Accountability is not vengeance.
“Accountability is what stands between the American people and a repeat of the mistakes and the very real consequences of the past.”
Paul said contempt votes should be rare but warned that Congress would surrender its constitutional oversight authority if powerful government officials could simply ignore subpoenas without consequence.
The committee ultimately agreed.
Fauci’s refusal to testify is now a potential criminal matter.
WATCH:
Fauci Pleaded the Fifth More Than 100 Times
Fauci was subpoenaed to appear before the committee on July 29 for what was expected to be a long-awaited reckoning over his role in the federal government’s pandemic response.
Republicans questioned the former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director about high-risk virology experiments, U.S. funding connected to research in Wuhan, his relationship with intelligence officials, and whether he lied to Congress.
Fauci refused to answer.
“On advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution,” Fauci repeated throughout the hearing.
He invoked the constitutional protection against self-incrimination more than 100 times.
Fauci would not even answer questions about whether a red folder was sitting in front of him, what day of the week it was, or the color of his tie.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) said Fauci’s blanket refusal to answer even harmless questions amounted to an abuse of the Fifth Amendment.
Biden Pardon May Have Destroyed Fauci’s Defense
Fauci’s legal position is complicated by the sweeping pardon he received from former President Joe Biden.
Biden issued Fauci a “full and unconditional pardon” covering federal offenses committed between January 1, 2014, and January 19, 2026.
Paul’s contempt resolution argues that the pardon eliminated Fauci’s reasonable fear of prosecution for conduct during that period.
In other words, Fauci may have lost the legal basis for invoking the Fifth Amendment while still refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena.
The resolution also argues that Fauci waived the privilege by delivering an opening statement attacking Paul’s investigation before refusing to answer lawmakers’ questions.
That dispute will now move beyond the hearing room and into the hands of the Justice Department.
Democrats Fight to Stop Criminal Referral
Committee Democrats made repeated attempts to delay or kill the contempt resolution.
Sen. Gary Peters (D-MI), the committee’s ranking member, tried to table the measure over concerns that it could reach prosecutors without a full Senate vote.
Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) demanded that the committee pause until outside legal experts could evaluate Fauci’s Fifth Amendment strategy.
Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) sought to delay the referral until Fauci’s attorney could testify.
Blumenthal also argued that Fauci should receive a guarantee from the Justice Department that he would not be prosecuted before being compelled to answer questions.
Republicans rejected every attempt.
Paul accused Democrats of running interference for Fauci and trying to prevent accountability.
Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) revealed that Democrats had not reviewed the committee’s investigative evidence through its internal document system.
“If the investigation seems one-sided, it’s because one side simply doesn’t want to look at the truth,” Johnson said.
Fauci’s Reckoning Has Arrived
For years, Fauci was protected by the corporate media, Democrat officials, and the federal bureaucracy.
He championed lockdowns, masks, mandates, school closures, and dangerous virus research while dismissing Americans who questioned his authority.
When Congress finally placed him under subpoena and demanded answers, Fauci refused to speak.
He pleaded the Fifth more than 100 times.
Now a Senate committee has formally voted to refer him for criminal prosecution.
The man once presented as the untouchable face of “science” is no longer merely facing difficult questions.
Fauci is facing the Justice Department.
And he could be facing prison.
