An FOIA request has released hundreds of emails from Dr. Anthony Fauci that has Republicans on the offensive about the handling of the COVID pandemic over the last 12-18 months.

Thursday on the WHOW Morning Show, Congressman Rodney Davis offered his thoughts on the release of the emails indicating these experts we've entrusted our decisions with should have to answer questions.

The Taylorville Republican is frustrated the decisions of Washington bureaucrats should be approved by the public. He points out decisions made by these people were not based on science and crippled American families and businesses.

According to Davis, this could be just the beginning for holding health officials accountable. He wonders why things have been so quick to change, but speculates it's because these officials have been playing politics. 

June 11, Governor JB Pritzker has targeted Illinois for a full reopening. Congressman Davis says this should provide little doubt that Illinois and every other state should be reopened.

The Taylorville Republican is also calling on schools to reopen in full this fall and for kids to return to school without masks.
