Health Insurance Politics In Federal Court, Wendy K. Mariner, George J. Annas Sep 2010

Health Insurance Politics In Federal Court, Wendy K. Mariner, George J. Annas

Faculty Scholarship

Having been outmaneuvered in Congress with the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“Affordable Care Act,” or ACA), Republicans have taken their case to federal court, arguing that the law's key provision, the individual mandate to purchase health insurance, is unconstitutional. This argument has been made most prominently by attorneys general from 20 states in a Florida federal court and by the Commonwealth of Virginia in a Virginia federal court.

All Faculty Scholarship
