Reconsiderations of the GOP assault on Obamacare seem almost to be prehistoric artifacts, as the nation is embroiled in the battle against COVID-19.
There are few more wasteful and counterproductive endeavors on Capitol Hill than the Republican bloc’s efforts to undermine the Affordable Care Act. . Rubio, who derided the risk corridor provision as a “bailout” of insurers, claimed to have “saved the American taxpayer $2.5 billion.”
For some insurers, this was an unsustainable loss. The new co-op serving 80,000 customers in Iowa and Nebraska — nearly eight times the enrollment it had expected, got $16 million to cover $140 million in claims. So they shut down, leaving their patients high and dry. Insurers that sued for their money would probably win, the experts thought, and the government would have to pay in the end. Federal courts were divided about this, so the issue landed at the Supreme Court.There the eight-justice majority agreed. Sotomayor endorsed the view of a lone dissenter to a decision upholding the blockade issued by the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in 2018.
