Bill Posey wrote to Commissioner Robert Califf, noting the agency unsuccessfully asked a court to trickle out Pfizer vaccine information over 55 to 75 years, Just the News reports

Nine other House Republicans joined the April 11th letter, including Reps. Massie and Brooks.

The lawmakers demand the agency immediately release data for COVID-19 products granted emergency use authorization and full approval.
