A coalition of Democratic-led states is asking the Supreme Court to immediately take up a challenge to Obamacare, calling on the justices to decide the law's fate well ahead of November's elections.
Obamacare supporters decried the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals' decision to kick the case down to lower court, saying it would shield President Donald Trump from the political consequences of a potential decision uprooting the health care law before the election. Democrats in 2018 made major electoral gains in part by attacking Republican support for the latest legal threat to Obamacare.
“Every day that Republicans’ anti-health care lawsuit is allowed to endure is a day that American families will be forced to live in uncertainty and fear," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a statement. The blue states said lingering uncertainty about the health care law would hurt patients whose coverage would be put at risk and disrupt major sectors of the health care industry. Without immediate high court review, the legal challenge can drag on for over a year, the Democratic attorneys general argued.
