(AP) — The latest twist in the search for two escaped, convicted killers is a possible sighting some 300 miles from the northern New York prison they cut themselves out of with power tools.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Congressional Budget Office says there won't be much impact on the budget deficit from repeal of the Affordable Care Act but some 20 million people would be thrown into the ranks of the uninsured. The report comes ahead of a highly anticipated Supreme Court ruling that could nullify health insurance subsidies for some 6 million people in more than 30 states. The budget analysts say that would add new uncertainties to their estimates.

WASHINGTON (AP) — An upcoming government audit reportedly says safety regulators bear some of the responsibility for failing to detect the General Motors ignition switch defect that's linked to more than 110 deaths. The New York Times and Detroit News report that an audit by the Transportation Department's Office of Inspector General says the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration repeatedly failed to hold automakers accountable for safety lapses and took nearly a decade to find the GM flaw.
