The Midday News Wrap: 06.30.17

from Midday · host WYPR 88.1 FM Baltimore

When Senate Republicans unveiled their health care bill a little more than a week ago, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said it would be voted on this week -- before Congress' July 4 recess. But, on Tuesday of this week, McConnell, realizing he didn't have the 50 votes needed to pass the bill, pulled the plug on the vote. What's next for the bill that, according to the Congressional Budget Office, would result in 23 million more people without health insurance in the next decade? Also this week, the President's Travel Ban is back, in part. The Supreme Court announced that it will hear arguments next fall regarding lower court decisions that stayed the President's executive order: And that parts of President Trump's revised travel ban could be enforced.

We'll take on these stories and others this week on the Midday News Wrap: Tom is joined in the studio by AP White House correspondent Julie Bykowicz and, onEmail us at [email protected], tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.
