Amy Coney Barrett’s past critiques on Obamacare face scrutiny

Heidi Przybyla, Sahil Kapur and Allan Smith, whose appointment could cement a conservative court majority for a generation, is on record criticizing past judicial decisions upholding the Affordable Care Act., Barrett quoted from Justice Antonin Scalia, who protested 2012 and 2015 rulings upholding core provisions of the law and lamented that Obamacare should be renamed “SCOTUScare.”that her appointment could upend health coverage for 20 million Americans.

With the nation experiencing a pandemic that’s already claimed 200,000 lives and left at least 6 million with potential COVID-related “pre-existing” conditions,to persuade voters that Barrett’s appointment will have a direct impact on their lives. A new lawsuit led by Texas and supported by the Trump administration is coming before the Supreme Court on Nov. 10.

Jonathan Adler, a professor at Case Western Reserve University School of Law and an architect of the 2015 legal challenge to ACA subsidies, said Barrett’s passage evoking “SCOTUScare” was “a fairly straightforward description of the Scalia dissent.” “I think ACA supporters should be concerned,” he said in an email. “Not panicked: the lawsuit is weak and the Supreme Court is unlikely to endorse it. But a small risk of a bad thing is worth worrying about.”

Demand Justice, a progressive group that plans to spend as much as $10 million to build opposition to Barrett's nomination, released

My best friend had to pay $200 a week for insurance under obamacare. It needs to be challenged that was a fourth of his paycheck. I pay a sixth every week for my healthcare. I'm not mentioning deductibles or copays which run into thousands each year.

She great choice

I wonder if her children went to parkland how would she vote on gun control.

NBC NEWS. LET US PLEASE HEAR THIS JUDGES STORY THEN MAKE A DECISION PLEASE . EVERYONE PLEASE PRAY. SINCERELY SHELLIE GARY. EVERYONE PLEASE PRAY.

lol, come on, she is there to destroy it

She's going to do everything she can to force us all to convert to Christianity and make life harder for the poor and nonwhites.

One cannot rule on ANY case without having ALL information, facts, evidence & likes. Neither you, nor ACB, can determine the outcome of a case before it’s even presented & a proper trial has been fully completed. Sorry, no crystall ball in SCOTUS.. maybe next life

It’ll be the Lochner Era part 2.

This pretty much sums up the GOP Supreme Court nominee

She’s there purely as a trump stooge - we know exactly how she’ll rule.

Here’s the catch-22. Has she saddled up 2 conservative issues cause she wants 2 get ahead, afraid of thinking independently would hold her back? Or really that firm in her belief that her’s is not only right, but the only 1. The catch is a judge, any judge should 1st follow the

Bye rights

JudgeBarrett

She will rule consistent with the Republican Party position, because she is a Republican political operative

Pretty sure we know how she’ll vote. That was the point of her selection. I wish the press wasn’t so blind.

She may surprise those that put her in office. She is a follower of the constitution. We shall see.

Trump has become a test of people's character, and with her trained perspective on justice, Amy Coney Barrett has failed misérably. America Should Prepare for the Worst.

Religious zealots should hold no seats on SCOTUS.

Judge Barret follows the Law. Judge Sullivan Reinvents the law.

Wow. That was thoughtful and unbiased tweeting from NBC News. Who would have thought.

.realDonaldTrump SCOTUS seatings are going to be living rent free in y'alls heads for DECADES!🇺🇸😂🇺🇸😂🇺🇸😂🇺🇸😂🇺🇸😂🇺🇸

She cannot disclose any feelings on this case

FartingCrickets All day.

just f=====g say it we want abortion clinics on every corner

Oh, please

She believes women have no right to determine healthcare for themselves, no domain over/right to control their own body, thinks the gov should crawl into a woman's uterus & make decisions for her. There's NO consensus on at what point an independent life exists except after birth

anblanx Please

We must make Republicans pay dearly for this power grab.

Bring a friend. Show up and vote. No excuses.

Obamacare is unconstitutional and should be abolished

Excuse me? She criticized Supreme Court Justice John Roberts on his vote for the ACA in writing (tax issue). She said votes should not be made for 'Political Expediency' Look it up

Since we're going to put this person in a place of life long power it's most important to find out if she creates law or searches for reasons to ignore our Contract with government (Constitution) and existing Law. Congress must remain the Legislative Branch or we fall into chaos

Sure, Jan

Just sit it out, no one cares about main stream news. Your all a joke.

The Affordable Care Act is gutter trash that robs the poor to enrich private insurance companies

I am sure Trump asked her as part of his loyalty pledge.

Repeal Obamacare. One if the worst pieces of legislation trash ever passed. Obama was a corrupt vile useless president that did absolutely nothing to help the black community in 8 years of office. And the blacks thought he was going to be their messiah. He sure screwed them.

We are so screwed

She is a wonderful person on every measure.

She will not recuse. Do not waste time asking. Demonstrative Impartiality :: Full & Fair Hearing

There’s only one thing the administration wants, overturn Roe V Wade
