Republicans in the Senate are working on their version of a health care bill behind closed doors and no draft text has yet been released to the full Senate to peruse.

Senate leadership wants a full floor vote on the legislation before the fourth of July, despite a lack of committee hearings and unknown provisions and impacts.
