Democratic congressional candidates distancing themselves from Pelosi. Hatch, 12 senators urge Sessions to end family separations. Romney says Trump isn’t above the law.
Happy Wednesday. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is not winning the hearts and minds of some Democratic congressional candidates this year. At least 20 House Democratic challengers -- including Utah’s Ben McAdams -- have publicly rejected the minority leader on the campaign trail and said they wouldn’t vote for her to be in leadership.

Topping the news: Sen. Orrin Hatch and 12 other Republicans in the Senate wrote a letter urging Attorney General Jeff Sessions to end the practice of separating families at the border until Congress passes legislation addressing the issue.
