Obamacare back at the court: Julie Rovner joins SCOTUStalk to preview the newest ACA challenge

The Affordable Care Act will come before the Supreme Court this fall for the seventh time in eight years. Julie Rovner, the chief Washington correspondent for Kaiser Health News and a veteran health policy reporter, joins Amy Howe in the latest episode of SCOTUStalk to break down the case, California v. Texas. They talk about the history of ACA challenges and why this time is different. Amy and Julie also pick apart some potential clues from this past term about a key issue in the case: the severability doctrine.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
So, that's what shutting down the economy and killing jobs and job related health insurance was about.

Not just trashing the economy, but keeping the ACA to keep subsidies going on to big insurers and major health networks, and making loss of insurance into an issue for people who have lost it already.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
