Obamacare repeal effort falters as Senate concedes defeat
Senate Republicans abandoned their last repeal bid before a key deadline. The plan would have dismantled core ObamaCare provisions and given states block grants, but mounting opposition from moderates and conservatives left no votes. Leaders pledged to push tax reform next, with Pence advising a 50 vote path.

FEMA head says more aid headed to Puerto Rico
FEMA administrator Brock Long announced a large federal push six days after Hurricane Maria. A flotilla of 16 Navy and Coast Guard ships plus 10 more were en route, including the hospital ship USNS Comfort, with thousands of military personnel to distribute food and water to isolated areas. Long noted airports and ports were damaged, slowing relief, and said cooperation with the governor would secure fuel access and security as the civil affairs unit from Fort Bragg aids communication with residents.
