This is AP news minute.

1. The newest senate health-care bill seeks out conservative support by letting insurers low-premium policies with skimpy the coverage¹. The bill is aimed at repealing² much of president Barack Obama's health law. But the GOP plan remains³ in deep jeopardy⁴ because of the division within the party.

2. President Donald Trump⁵ is saluting⁶ the US' unbreakable ties with France. Standing⁷ beside France president Emmanuel Macron, Trump said a lot of people forget that France helps us secure out independence.

3. Authorities are digging deeper into their quest of three missing Pennsylvania. They recovered the body of one in a more than 12-foot deep grave on a farm. The DA says the common grave gets deeper as they dig.

4. A worker in Texas got locked into a room behind an ATM, with no way to reach bank employees. The man slipped notes to customers through the ATM receipt slot. Some thought it was a joke but one finally called police.
