President Barack Obama's parting words were "Look out for the American people" after a lengthy closed-door meeting with House and Senate Democrats about preserving his signature healthcare law.

Republicans are pushing ahead on repealing the law while they work on a replacement.

Virginia Rep. Gerry Connolly says Obama's message was to "make sure that every American who loses his or her health care knows that the Republican repeal vote did that."

Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer warns that repeal would throw the insurance marketplace into chaos.
