Any White House staffer can approve a visitor to the White House grounds, the AP notes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunes' spokesman did not specify when he visited White House property.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week \u003ca href=\"http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/03/24/devin-nunes-vanished-the-night-before-he-made-trump-surveillance-claims.html\">the Daily Beast reported\u003c/a>, citing anonymous sources, that Nunes \"jumped out out of an Uber\" on Tuesday evening after receiving a message on his phone, and didn't tell his staffers where he went. The press conference was held on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CNN has since reported \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/27/politics/devin-nunes-white-house-donald-trump/\">a similar account\u003c/a> of Nunes abruptly leaving a staffer on Tuesday night. On Friday, ranking member Rep. Schiff appeared to allude to the incident as a mysterious \"dead of night excursion.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff has been sharply critical of Nunes' recent decisions, including holding Wednesday's press conference and cancelling a public hearing this Tuesday. Schiff is one of several voices on Capitol Hill calling for an independent investigation of Russian intrusion in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the Senate's investigation is moving forward.

Instead, he noted that Nunes was cleared to view classified material — drawing a contrast between leaks to reporters and the passing of any information to Nunes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's more on what we know about Nunes' meeting, from The Associated Press:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>\"Nunes' office said the information provided to the chairman came from 'executive branch documents that have not been provided to Congress.'\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\" 'Because of classification rules, the source could not simply put the documents in a backpack and walk them over to the House Intelligence Committee space,' [Nunes spokesman Jack] Langer said. 'The White House grounds was the best location to safeguard the proper chain of custody and classification of these documents, so the chairman could view them in a legal way.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Nunes has not identified his source. Any White House staffer can approve a visitor to the White House grounds, the AP notes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunes' spokesman did not specify when he visited White House property.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week \u003ca href=\"http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/03/24/devin-nunes-vanished-the-night-before-he-made-trump-surveillance-claims.html\">the Daily Beast reported\u003c/a>, citing anonymous sources, that Nunes \"jumped out out of an Uber\" on Tuesday evening after receiving a message on his phone, and didn't tell his staffers where he went. The press conference was held on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CNN has since reported \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/27/politics/devin-nunes-white-house-donald-trump/\">a similar account\u003c/a> of Nunes abruptly leaving a staffer on Tuesday night. On Friday, ranking member Rep. Schiff appeared to allude to the incident as a mysterious \"dead of night excursion.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff has been sharply critical of Nunes' recent decisions, including holding Wednesday's press conference and cancelling a public hearing this Tuesday. Schiff is one of several voices on Capitol Hill calling for an independent investigation of Russian intrusion in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the Senate's investigation is moving forward. Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner will be talking to the Senate committee, and the committee will hold its first open hearing on Thursday. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

Some members suggested that the White House's ultimatum might have pushed some legislators to realize that this is perhaps their make-or-break moment to fulfill a campaign promise they've long been running on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In politics there is always another day, but there are certain critical moments where things come to a head, and I think tomorrow is one of those moments, one of those test moments for this conference,\" Rep.

But the attempts to meet the demands of the conservative House Freedom Caucus — who are under pressure from conservative interest groups not to bend — and the most moderate members of the Tuesday Group — who could face electoral backlash in 2018 in their swing districts — were often at odds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Freedom Caucus members were signaling late Thursday night that some of their demands were being met. An amendment released after the GOP meeting would repeal \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2017/03/23/521220359/gop-health-bill-changes-could-kill-protections-for-people-with-preexisting-condi\">essential health benefits\u003c/a> and let states set their own standards for that part of health insurance coverage for individuals purchasing coverage with a tax credit. It would also provide additional money for a fund for mental health and substance abuse disorders and maternity care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some of those concessions — namely the repeal of essential health benefits in Obamacare — could also be nonstarters with more centrist Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I do not think that it lowers premiums and I do not think that it covers enough people,\" Rep. Leonard Lance, R-N.J., told NPR's Kelly McEvers on \u003cem>All Things Considered\u003c/em> Thursday before the conference meeting. Lance represents one of 23 GOP-held districts that Trump did not carry last November and is expected to be a top Democratic target in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has lobbied members on the bill but has seemed reluctant to put his full political weight behind the issue and at times appeared daunted by the task before him. \"Nobody knew that health care could be so complicated,\" the president bemoaned last month, an incredulous statement to anyone who knows how intricate and nuanced health care policy really is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has hit the campaign trail with full-fledged campaign rallies to try to generate support for the bill, but at his appearance this week in Louisville, Kentucky, Trump barely even touched on the subject.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, perhaps most telling, for a man who loves putting his name on everything from skyscrapers to steaks, he has eschewed the moniker \"Trumpcare\" for the GOP's effort to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Speaker Paul Ryan also has a lot of political capital riding on the outcome of Friday's vote. He has tried to work with a president he withdrew support from during the campaign, but if the vote fails it could destroy the already fragile relationship between the two and ignite a blame game between the White House and GOP congressional leaders. There were \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/23/us/politics/trump-health-care-bill-regrets.html?smid=tw-nytimes&smtyp=cur&_r=0\">already signs\u003c/a> that was beginning to happen Thursday night, with the \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> reporting that Trump has told his aides he regrets going along with Ryan's push to overhaul health care before tackling tax cuts and other legislative issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The frustration and exhaustion of the political brinkmanship pushed almost entirely by the White House was evident on Ryan's face as he emerged from the Republican conference meeting Thursday evening. He didn't take any questions from reporters and simply spouted off a terse statement: \"For 7½ years we have been promising the American people that we will repeal and replace this broken law because it's collapsing and it's failing families. And tomorrow we're proceeding.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, the House vote could be an exercise in legislative futility. If the bill does pass, it will be changed in the Senate, where it also faces an uphill battle. And this is just Part 1 of the three-part plan by Republicans to overhaul and replace Obamacare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if the first bill dies in the House, the broader message could be devastating for both Trump and House Republicans. The failure would signal that they haven't yet found a way to govern in Washington despite finally holding both the White House and control of Congress. The setback would spell doom for many of Trump's other priorities, including tax reform, and exacerbate what's already been a bad week for the White House, which began with FBI Director James Comey confirming to Congress that the agency is investigating possible ties between the Trump campaign and the Russian government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In many ways, Republicans have backed themselves into a no-win situation. If they rush to pass an unpopular bill riddled with problems, they're giving Democrats plenty of ammunition to use in the midterm elections, and GOP members on defense at town halls over health care could be further put on their heels. But if the bill fails, the discord and disarray in the GOP overshadowed by Trump's unlikely win last November will only be magnified, and this could be just the beginning of headaches for Republicans at both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR's Barbara Sprunt contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

The former South Carolina congressman told his former colleagues that if the House does not pass the bill, the president is moving on to other priorities and leaving the law known as Obamacare in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Speaker Paul Ryan emerged from the conference meeting to issue a terse statement: \"For seven and a half years we have been promising the American people that we will repeal and replace this broken law because it's collapsing and it's failing families. And tomorrow we're proceeding.\" Ryan then left the gathering of reporters without taking questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The threat from President Trump threatens to imperil one of Republicans' longtime campaign pledges — that they would repeal and replace Obamacare — just as they have finally wrested control of both the legislative and executive branch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there's been little comity on the critical issue in the House GOP conference on exactly how to do that, with defectors from both the right and the center refusing to support the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"wVYM4jFRhUgI19liMGcQBJyNoq6EFo0V\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Thursday vote was originally slated, but late afternoon that was postponed when it became clear the votes were not there to pass the bill. House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy tried downplay the task ahead, \u003ca href=\"http://gantdaily.com/2017/03/23/gop-leader-kevin-mccarthy-we-hope-to-vote-friday/\">saying on CNN\u003c/a> that leadership just needs to convince \"a couple more\" lawmakers to give their support. \"We'll start the debate [Friday] morning,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's little indication, though, that a delay in the vote could move the whip count.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump, famous for his deal-making abilities, has tried to woo both unhappy factions of the GOP conference with little success. No consensus was reached during a meeting with the president and the roughly 40 members of the House Freedom Caucus at the White House Thursday afternoon. Vice President Pence met with the maybe two dozen moderates in the so-called Tuesday Group, many of whom are also opposed to the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House press secretary Sean Spicer had insisted Thursday afternoon, about an hour before the delay, that the vote for the night was still on (though no time was set).

The former South Carolina congressman told his former colleagues that if the House does not pass the bill, the president is moving on to other priorities and leaving the law known as Obamacare in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Speaker Paul Ryan emerged from the conference meeting to issue a terse statement: \"For seven and a half years we have been promising the American people that we will repeal and replace this broken law because it's collapsing and it's failing families. And tomorrow we're proceeding.\" Ryan then left the gathering of reporters without taking questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The threat from President Trump threatens to imperil one of Republicans' longtime campaign pledges — that they would repeal and replace Obamacare — just as they have finally wrested control of both the legislative and executive branch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Beyond refusing to cover people with existing medical conditions, they sold policies that excluded coverage for some medical care, including prenatal care, childbirth and mental health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Century Foundation, 9 percent of policies didn’t even cover prescription drugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A survey by \u003ca href=\"https://www.healthpocket.com/healthcare-research/infostat/few-existing-health-plans-meet-new-aca-essential-health-benefit-standards/#.WNPLMW8rJhF\">HealthPocket Inc.\u003c/a> shows that before Obamacare, only 61 percent of health plans included coverage for mental health care, and that coverage was often limited.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People who wanted better coverage could often buy a \u003ca href=\"http://coventryone.com/web/groups/public/@cvty_individual_c1/documents/document/c054278.pdf\">special plan\u003c/a> to add to their basic insurance. But insurers know that those who buy add-on insurance do so because they need it, or expect to need it in the future, so such plans are quite expensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s especially clear when it comes to maternity care, which has been a frequent target of \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/10/politics/shimkus-prenatal-care-comments/\">Republican ire\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A 2012 \u003ca href=\"http://www.nwlc.org/sites/default/files/pdfs/nwlc_2012_turningtofairness_report.pdf\">study\u003c/a> by the National Women’s Law Center found that, before Obamacare, only about 6 percent of policies available on the individual insurance market included maternity coverage. One plan offered a maternity rider that cost more than $1,600 a month on top of the regular premium. Many of those policies had maternity-specific deductibles as high as $10,000, or did not actually kick in for two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even insurance provided by employers had limits for maternity care. A \u003ca href=\"http://transform.childbirthconnection.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Cost-of-Having-a-Baby-Executive-Summary.pdf\">study by Tr\u003c/a>\u003ca href=\"http://transform.childbirthconnection.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Cost-of-Having-a-Baby-Executive-Summary.pdf\">uven\u003c/a> found that in 2010, women who had insurance through their employers still paid about $12,000 to $16,000 for childbirth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since maternity care and childbirth costs about $30,000 for a vaginal delivery, families who had coverage before the Affordable Care Act were essentially prepaying for the care they were getting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s because insurers know that only those expecting to have children will buy the coverage. The risk is not spread across a broad population.

Beyond refusing to cover people with existing medical conditions, they sold policies that excluded coverage for some medical care, including prenatal care, childbirth and mental health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Century Foundation, 9 percent of policies didn’t even cover prescription drugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A survey by \u003ca href=\"https://www.healthpocket.com/healthcare-research/infostat/few-existing-health-plans-meet-new-aca-essential-health-benefit-standards/#.WNPLMW8rJhF\">HealthPocket Inc.\u003c/a> shows that before Obamacare, only 61 percent of health plans included coverage for mental health care, and that coverage was often limited.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People who wanted better coverage could often buy a \u003ca href=\"http://coventryone.com/web/groups/public/@cvty_individual_c1/documents/document/c054278.pdf\">special plan\u003c/a> to add to their basic insurance. But insurers know that those who buy add-on insurance do so because they need it, or expect to need it in the future, so such plans are quite expensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s especially clear when it comes to maternity care, which has been a frequent target of \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/10/politics/shimkus-prenatal-care-comments/\">Republican ire\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A 2012 \u003ca href=\"http://www.nwlc.org/sites/default/files/pdfs/nwlc_2012_turningtofairness_report.pdf\">study\u003c/a> by the National Women’s Law Center found that, before Obamacare, only about 6 percent of policies available on the individual insurance market included maternity coverage. One plan offered a maternity rider that cost more than $1,600 a month on top of the regular premium. Many of those policies had maternity-specific deductibles as high as $10,000, or did not actually kick in for two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even insurance provided by employers had limits for maternity care. A \u003ca href=\"http://transform.childbirthconnection.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Cost-of-Having-a-Baby-Executive-Summary.pdf\">study by Tr\u003c/a>\u003ca href=\"http://transform.childbirthconnection.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Cost-of-Having-a-Baby-Executive-Summary.pdf\">uven\u003c/a> found that in 2010, women who had insurance through their employers still paid about $12,000 to $16,000 for childbirth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since maternity care and childbirth costs about $30,000 for a vaginal delivery, families who had coverage before the Affordable Care Act were essentially prepaying for the care they were getting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s because insurers know that only those expecting to have children will buy the coverage. The risk is not spread across a broad population. The point of including essential health benefits in the ACA is to spread the risk of all medical conditions across the entire population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That makes basic insurance policies more expensive, and allows those policies to protect people from more risks.

Last Friday, the Department of Homeland Security began accepting proposals for two different barriers: a concrete wall and one made of an unspecified type of material -- presumably to be used in different areas of the border, depending on things like terrain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are more than 700 companies -- many based in California -- interested in some part of building the wall, which could cost more than $20 billion. All these companies have signed up on the \u003ca href=\"https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=main&mode=list&tab=list\">Federal Business Opportunities website\u003c/a>, where companies big and small go in search of federal contracts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there's more political blowback for the \"big, beautiful wall\" Trump has repeatedly promised to build. The project is so unpopular in California that \u003ca href=\"https://oakland.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=2975618&GUID=7F44A752-7258-4543-8F2B-3FF9A08B5ED3&Options=&Search=\" target=\"_blank\">some cities\u003c/a> say they'll try to bar companies from city contracts if they help build the wall, and some \u003ca href=\"https://a19.asmdc.org/press-releases/ca-lawmakers-push-state-divest-companies-building-trumps-border-wall\" target=\"_blank\">Democratic lawmakers have introduced legislation\u003c/a> to divest the state employee pension fund from any businesses that work on it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
