Two top Republican senators asked the Senate Intelligence Committee for access to records that the committee had obtained during its own lengthy inquiry into Russian interference during the 2016 presidential election.

Senate Homeland Security Chairman Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley of Iowa sent acting Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Marco Rubio, a Florida Republican, and his Democratic vice chairman, Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia, a two-page letter on Thursday “to request access to certain transcripts of interviews conducted and records acquired by your committee that overlap with ongoing investigations” by their own committees.
