(Bloomberg) -- A House committee voted Monday to seek clearance from the White House for public release of a classified Republican memo that alleges bias and counterintelligence abuses in government surveillance of people surrounding President Donald Trump, a Democratic member of the panel said. Representative Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said the panel decided to seek release of the GOP memo on a party-line vote, and the panel’s Republican majority also refused along party lines to release a competing memo written by Democrats. "This is an effort to circle the wagons around the White House and distract from the Russia probe," said Schiff of California.
