The death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg comes just as the Supreme Court was about to hear a case challenging the ACA. It could end Medicaid expansion and protections for preexisting conditions.

, a three-judge 5th Circuit appeals court panel in New Orleans agreed that without the penalty the requirement to buy insurance is unconstitutional. But it sent the case back to O'Connor to suggest that perhaps the entire law need not fall.

While the fate of the ACA was, and is, a live political issue, few legal observers have been terribly worried about the legal outcome of the case now known as, if only because the case seemed much weaker than the 2012 and 2015 cases in which Roberts joined the court's four liberals.

Some court observers argue that Justice Brett Kavanaugh has not favored invalidating an entire statute if only part of it is flawed and might not approve overturning the ACA. Adult children under age 26 would no longer be guaranteed the right to remain on their parents' health plans, and Medicare patients would lose enhanced prescription drug coverage. Women would lose guaranteed access to birth control at no out-of-pocket cost.

And I am guessing COVID19 will qualify as a preexisting condition. How many will have been exposed by the time it runs its course?

Wow it's almost like we should've had a compelling counter platform with actual policy that people wanted from the beginning to ensure we won, instead of just screaming 'bUt TrUmP' from the rooftops.. 🙄🤦‍♀️

RBG’s death activated the last of the dormant Trump supporters. Even the ProjectLincoln guys are licking their chops. Whether they admit it, or not. Tough break for the Dems.

I kind of doubt they’ll strike down Roe , it’s just a campaign issue to keep the rubes voting republican . Trust me the last thing corporate republicans want are a million babies born into poverty who’ll need federal aid .

Not to mention Medicare and Social Security.

And the republicans will surely pass that bigly healthcare plan they've been working on for 12 years *right* after that, right?

And... GOP next senate control session must implement the proposed DEM rules (if DEMs haven’t already done so by that time), eliminate filibuster, add 2 - 3 more conservative justices! Plus same for other courts!

What people need to realize is that the stage is set no matter what for their healthcare to be upended. With the current court even if Roberts sides with the liberals a tie will uphold the lower court ruling. Obamacare is dead. Vote Nov. 3rd as if your life depends on it, it does

Seems like we are down to zero integrity in government, this does not bode well :( TrumpFailedAmerica

GOP is playing the long game. Democrats are simply trying like hell to win an election that is slipping away every day. Being a Democrat must suck in 2020. I would pity them if they weren’t so detestable.

Our democracy is broken. Women did not vote for Trump in 2016 & they are not voting for him in 2020. They also did not vote for the GOP Senate as women favor Democrats by 10+ points. How can we allow these men who women did not put in power take away women's healthcare rights?

Nancy filled the Heroes Act with unrelated partisan pork. It's been 100+ days and no pork removed. Meanwhile, Americans are suffering. She's still attacking POTUS, but doesn't do her job and ignores Americans in need.

charles_gaba And crush many Americans in the process

Pelosi is a booze hound

paloaltoann People need to understand this. Healthcare is at stake even more than before.

He's rushing to make a decision because RBG passed.

NPR is a Marxist propaganda operation that never defends America. NOT ONE MORE TAX DOLLAR FOR NPR!

The Affordable Care Act is NOT affordable. I had to go off the govt. site to save money for the SAME coverage with BCBS. The Obamacare is higher which should be criminal. But the LEFT will defend it to the end no matter what the price.

He wants to crush democracy and have a 6-3 court invalidate a Biden win. Losing the ACA would no doubt be terrible, but one we could ultimately remedy. Not so sure doing that, or anything else, happens without preventing the former.

Or. Follow me here. Trump is fulfilling his duty to nominate a replacement for the court. 29 times a SCOTUS seat has been vacated in an election year and all 29 times the president has made a nomination. Don't believe the lies.

I'm your ice cream lady, stop me when I'm passing by.

Where is the Republican Health Care Plan?🤔

Disheartening to see that has lowered itself to the low of a cnn. Money money

Trump cannot empathize with the average American who has needed the protections brought by Obamacare.

The same ACA that Dem's have been saying they would replace if elected? That ACA?

Affordable Care Act is better name than it is a policy... typically if you're young and healthy you get a great insurance rate... definitely not the case in my state. Shift the focus from insurance to health care. Insurance is not a right... but health care should be

Good Obamacare is unconstitutional. You know it, I know it, we all know it. My insurance price raised $500 a month because of Obamacare. It needs to be gone NOW

Could you keep your doctor know you couldn’t keep your doctor could you keep your insurance plan no you couldn’t keep your insurance plan, if you live in rule America were you able to actually find a product that paid any of your bills no

If Obama care was so Flippin good the proof should be in the pudding come on where’s all the stories about the success, because there are millions of stories about people going bankrupt over it

Do you remember Obama and all of his secret meetings with hospital administrators and drug companies that’s right they were negotiating deals behind the American peoples back’s and guess what Obama did that Nancy Pelosi did that, who lost the American people

Name a hospital that you can’t show up at having a heart attack or being injured and you’re turned away because you don’t have insurance it was a lie from the beginning and it’s a lie now, do you know who they were protecting the for-profit hospital systems

Democrats are full of absolute shit all they cared about was bringing our nation to the point of government ran medicine they walk on you they were on your life they will tell you what to do and not to do because they know better, it had nothing to do with you getting healthcare

Do you know what MPR if you actually cared about healthcare for people you’d investigate what a travesty this was on the American citizens and how many people ended up in bankruptcy because of it, and how many people never actually got healthcare because of it

We need a national boycott of all Republican owned businesses in this country.

BFF’s. 😎😷😳

Nancy Pelosi would that be America’s most important bill ever passed that you never read before passing it, it destroyed lives you moron people are in debt because of it they thought you gave them insurance and what you gave them was a deductible, and no providers participating

I wonder what his health care plan will be in its place? He’s repeatedly dodged questions about it.

only democrats can spin eliminating a government mandate as a bad thing. why do they hate freedom?

And have child preg females n all friends aquaintences arrested on false charges of plottin abort. To end their vote for life. Just like blacks are treated.

Combined with not crushing the virus will be a disaster 💀

Meanwhile, he's lied several times about when he'd be releasing his ideas for replacing it (spoiler, he has none.)

My 8yr old Trans son came to me today and said he wants to dress up as Ruth Bader Ginsburg for Halloween. At first that made me very proud, However, she did just basically hand over the election to Trump. I don’t know what to tell him. I’m Shaking.

Actually all the more reason to step it up.

Biden takes cautious approach to SCOTUS stormPresident Trump’s campaign and even some Democrats demanded that Biden release his own list of potential court nominees — which Biden has steadfastly refused to do. Biden should agree to release the list as soon as Trump releases his tax returns. He doesn’t have any coz he’s a placeholder for Kamala, he’ll never be inaugurated, you should ask her, she’s got a list.
