WASHINGTON (AP) – The Latest on the Republican effort to replace the Obama health care law (all times local):

12:10 p.m.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has released a revamped Republican health care bill, and it seeks out conservative support by letting insurers sell low-premium policies with skimpy coverage.

The bill is aimed at repealing much of President Barack Obama’s health law. But the GOP plan remains in deep jeopardy because of divisions within the party.

It’s unclear whether the measure will survive a showdown vote next week.
