Republicans to Reveal Secret Healthcare Bill on Thursday
--------------------------------------------------------

Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mc Connell said Republicans will release a
draft of the healthcare bill on Thursday morning, as Republicans face
widespread outrage for negotiating the bill in secret, closed-door
meetings. The Republicans' House bill would strip 23 million people of
their health insurance, while giving billions of dollars in tax breaks
to wealthy Americans. They are pushing for a vote on the bill before the
July 4 recess. We'll have more on the Republican healthcare plan later
in the broadcast.
