Lawmakers Battle over Whether to Declassify Nunes Memo
------------------------------------------------------

In more news from Washington, D.C., lawmakers are battling over whether
to declassify a four-page document written by California Congressmember
Devin Nunes in which he claims that, under the Obama administration, the
FBI surveilled the Trump campaign. The House Intelligence Committee,
which Nunes chairs, may vote to declassify the memo as early as today.
Democratic lawmakers are accusing Nunes of trying to derail and
undermine special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into the Trump
campaign in trying to release the document.
