Court: Part of 'Obamacare' invalid, more review needed

in #dlike5 years ago

Shared From Dlike

A federal appeals court struck down “Obamacare’s” now-toothless requirement that Americans carry health insurance but sidestepped a ruling on the law’s overall constitutionality. The decision means the law remains in effect for now.The 2-1 ruling handed down by a panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans means the ultimate fate of the rest of the Affordable Care Act including such popular provisions as protections for those with pre-existing conditions, Medicaid expansion and the ability for children under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ insurance remains unclear the law’s insurance requirement, the so-called “individual mandate,” was rendered unconstitutional when Congress,  reduced a tax on people without insurance to zero.
