Republicans say they will not comply with a new request from House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff that members of the committee show proof of a negative COVID-19 test before joining a regular meeting to conduct business.

“Chairman Schiff believes the members of Congress should be tested just to show up for work, and we will not comply,” Ohio Rep. Mike Turner, the Republican ranking member on the intelligence committee, said in a press conference Wednesday.
