It isn’t a precedent, it’s the law.
There might be mitigating circumstances where the OLC decided it shouldn't be released. But administration hasn't explained it.
UPDATE - among other things in the legal opinion, the letter the GC for ODNI sent to the committees said they believe the complaint in question didn't meet the statutory definition of an "urgent concern."

“This President got the benefit of something you built up for decades - your credibility,” @ChrisCuomo says to Giuliani. Wow.
“I’m the one who should embarrassed. Okay. I’m embarrassed - for you,” Cuomo says. Giuliani has morphed into his client on national tv.
Some context for Giuliani-Cuomo - Mario Cuomo was endorsed by Giuliani in his Re-election fight against the challenger George Pataki. Giuliani, a recent former US attorney, said “ethics would be trashed” if Pataki won. It set the tone forever between Giuliani and Pataki.

From Lewandowski prepared opening statement: “We as a nation would be better served if elected officials like you concentrated your efforts to combat the true crises facing our country as opposed to going down rabbit holes like this hearing.”
The opening statement is deeply praising of the president’s victory as “historic.” Worth remembering two things - one, no matter how many efforts have been made to kill off Lewandowski in the Trump staff forever war, his former boss still likes him. Two, this is either ....
...a springboard to announcing a campaign in NH, or a mic drop before saying he’s taking a pass.

Some interesting data about Trump and Biden in a survey conducted by the president’s pollster two months ago for AARP. It showed Trump losing to Biden in 4 states. Trump claimed stories about his campaign polling showing him down to Biden was “fake news.” aarp.org/research/topic…
It’s unclear what Trump campaign current data shows. But in public surveys , Trump is in one of the worst stretches he’s had since becoming president aarp.org/research/topic…
And/but, in a state like NC, Trump is over performing Thillis, which is noteworthy aarp.org/research/topic…

#UPDATE
1)
 Saudi Arabia and U.S. assessments indicate there is a “very high probability” that low altitude cruise missiles, launched from an Iranian base near the Iraq border, were used in this weekend’s attack targeting Saudi oil facilities.
2)
 Saudi Cabinet:
This aggression is an extension of previous attacks on Aramco with #Iran-made weapons. Int'l community should take tougher stance.
King Salman of Saudi Arabia: KSA will defend its territory and facilities no matter where these attacks come from
3)
 Tehran-backed Houthi spox:
The near future defensive operations will be harsher and more painful if the aggression and siege continue.

#UPDATE
Iranian Ambassador to London: Indian Embassy granted the right to visit 18 Indian crew members of the seized British tanker.

My take:
#Iran's regime has committed piracy & taken these crew members hostage. They must be confronted with a firm response immediately.
#UPDATE
Indian gov: Iranian authorities release nine Indians from Panama-flagged Riah oil tanker seized by #Iran

My take:
Tehran is attempting to "cooperate" after news of Europe & Gulf states weighing separate initiatives to use naval forces to protect ships in regional waters.
#UPDATE
Danish Foreign Minister Anders Samuelsen: We welcome a British plan for a naval mission in the Strait of Hormuz and look positively at our possible participation.
