Geraldine from Waynesboro asked about holding China accountable.
Congressman Allen: “We depend on China for certain critical products, like our medicines and other things… Under President Trump, what we wanted to do was move the manufacturing of all critical products – medicines and otherwise – to this country and really cut all ties with China. President Biden had a meeting with [ccp] Chairman Xi, and he has not released anything about what they talked about-- and he should be held accountable to the American people; did he in fact address these issues with the Chairman of the Communist Party? We don’t even know if he did. It is just terrible leadership, China needs to be held accountable. I will tell you this, President Trump had them on the run.
“China is basically ignoring their responsibility. I cannot imagine allowing a country to behave like this. Why other nations, including the United States, are not taking the position of investigating [the origins of COVID-19] and finding out what caused this, because China should pay… China should pay dearly for economic loss and economic hardship.”
Brandon from Evans asked about federal vaccine mandates.
Congressman Allen: "I joined all 50 GOP Senators and all 212 House Republicans in support of the Congressional Review Act resolution to repeal the private business mandate -- that was the first thing that we did. There have been multiple lawsuits filed across this country in what we consider reasonable court districts, where we will get legitimate constitutional decisions and the court is where the highest likelihood of us quickly and successfully halting these mandates before they go into full effect.”
