WASHINGTON (AP) – The Latest on the effort by congressional Republicans to pass a health care bill (all times local):

7:20 a.m.

President Donald Trump says “we will soon see whether or not Republicans are willing to step up to the plate!” on health care.

Trump has been pressuring Senate Republicans to vote on a health care bill “after 7 years of talking.” A procedural vote is planned for Tuesday.

Trump says on Twitter Tuesday morning that Obamacare is “torturing” Americans. He says “I have pen in hand” to sign a bill and is urging a vote either to repeal, or to repeal and replace the Obama law.
