News Wrap: White House blocks Fauci from congressional testimony

In our news wrap Friday, the White House confirmed it has blocked Dr. Anthony Fauci from testifying at a congressional hearing next week on the COVID-19 response, saying he is busy dealing with the pandemic. Also, Canada is banning the use and trade of assault-style weapons, effective immediately. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said his order covers more than 1,500 models and variants of firearms.
