WASHINGTON (AP) – The House intelligence committee voted Monday to release a Democratic rebuttal to a GOP memo on the Russia investigation.
The panel vote was unanimous to make the classified Democratic document public.
It now goes to President Donald Trump for a five-day review, and he will decide whether or not to allow its release – as he did with the Republican document last week.
The Democratic document aims to counter the Republican document, which accused the FBI and Justice Department of abusing their authority in monitoring a onetime Trump campaign associate Carter Page.
A White House spokesman said Trump will “consider” the Democratic memo’s release the same way he considered the Republican document.
