The shooting at a congressional baseball practice reminds us of something we too often forget: We are one country, and we’re all in this together.

1. Congressional shooting

The Senate bill would dramatically change Medicaid, just like the House version. Spending on the program would be reduced by $800 billion over 10 years, partially by eliminating Medicaid expansion funding. 

The Senate bill also would offer more generous tax credits for lower-income and older Americans. The House bill replaces Obamacare’s subsidies with tax credits, but they’re considered inadequate to help those groups. The Senate’s fix, however, could tick off conservatives, who think the tax credits are too much like the subsidies they’re supposed to replace.

The Senate’s bill may not include the House bill’s prohibition on federal funding for Planned Parenthood, something else sure to make conservatives unhappy.

A vote is possible before Congress leaves town for the July 4 recess.

3. London fire

And that’s not the only big change Uber is making. The company’s also going to let you start tipping drivers, something drivers had been asking for (and Uber strongly objected to) for years.

Meanwhile, the heat wave out West will probably last all week. Temperature records were broken through the region again in places like Phoenix, which hit 119 degrees. Dozens of flights were canceled again due to the heat, too.

CORRECTION: An earlier version of the first item incorrectly identified the program that the Senate bill could dramatically change. It is Medicaid.
