The Trump administration is no longer briefing members of Congress on the troop withdrawal from Northern Syria, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Wednesday afternoon.
I am deeply concerned that the White House has canceled an all-Member classified briefing on the dangerous situation the President has caused in Syria, denying the Congress its right to be informed as it makes decisions about our national security.

There was a classified all-House briefing on the Syria issue scheduled for Thursday.
Mr. Trump is still holding a separate bipartisan meeting with congressional leadership this afternoon at the White House, a Democratic aide told The Washington Times.
The apparent cancellation came not long after the House voted on an overwhelming bipartisan basis to condemn the president’s decision as a grave mistake and threat to national security.
