A complaint against Dr. Anthony Fauci alleges that the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) violated the Hatch Act—which prohibits government employees from “us[ing] his official authority or influence for the purpose of interfering with or affecting the result of an election.”
The complaint, filed on Wednesday, was made by Protect the Public’s Trust (PPT), a non-profit organization “dedicated to promoting compliance in government and restoring the public’s trust in government officials.”
