and if it is not formally given to them that way freely, then they will subpoena it. But yes, they should have access.

The spin meeting this morning said that they were given the fully redacted version for review in case they wanted to claim privilege... but that they didn't.

Given the limited nature of the redactions, I believe that the publicly released report will allow every American to understand the results of the Special Counsel’s investigation. Nevertheless, in an effort to accommodate congressional requests, we will make available to a bipartisan group of leaders from several Congressional committees a version of the report with all redactions removed except those relating to grand-jury information. Thus, these members of Congress will be able to see all of the redacted material for themselves – with the limited exception of that which, by law, cannot be shared.


Looking through it so far, most of the redactions appear to be "harm to an ongoing matter". They would theoretically be allowed to review those. They should also be able to see the "personal privacy" stuff, but that looks pretty limited.
