House Judiciary Committee Democrats asked the Department of Justice on Thursday to terminate the classified documents case against President-elect Donald Trump’s co-defendants in Florida, which they said would clear the way for the department to release the special counsel report about the case.

The Democrats, led by ranking member Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), told Attorney General Merrick Garland in a letter that ending the case against the co-defendants was worth seeing the report.
