THE DOCUMENT LIBRARY

Read the record.
Judge the evidence yourself.

Primary government records, congressional submissions, and clearly labeled project analysis—provided in full wherever possible.

HOW TO USE THIS LIBRARY

Source type matters.

We distinguish official records and original proposals from statements, reporting, and advocacy. Inclusion does not establish that every claim in a document is correct. It allows readers, journalists, officials, and researchers to examine what was actually written.

01

August 2026

James Haslam and George A. Howard’s cited statement following the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing. It asks Congress to examine UNC and Duke records relevant to coronavirus research and the origins investigation.

WHY IT MATTERSThis is the project’s central congressional submission and a roadmap to the records its authors believe investigators should obtain.
