About 300 protesters gathered at senators’ offices Wednesday to protest the Republican effort to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, despite the bill’s movement in the chamber losing steam earlier this week. Meanwhile, 49 senators met with President Donald Trump in the White House to discuss the bill’s future.
