Democrats have slammed the announcement by Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe Friday that he is canceling in-person congressional election security briefings, just over two months ahead of Election Day.

In a joint statement, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff called the change “a shocking abdication” of responsibilities of the DNI.
