A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration’s efforts to expand the availability of health plans that don’t meet the coverage rules of the Affordable Care Act is a deliberate and illegal “end-run“ around the federal health care law

The Trump administration has lost another Obamacare legal battle — its second this week — just as the president has revived his drive to destroy and replace the 2010 health law.late Thursday in Washington that the administration’s efforts to expand the availability of health plans that don’t meet the coverage rules of the Affordable Care Act is a deliberate and illegal “end run“ around the federal health care law.

The legal setbacks also come as Trump has made a high-stakes gamble by vowing another effort to dismantle Obamacare, which he called “an absolute disaster.“ The administration roiled the health care industry earlier this week by siding with a federal judge who ruled in December that the entire ACA, which was enacted nearly a decade ago, is unconstitutional and must be tossed. That was a reversal of the Department of Justice’s earlier position, that only a portion of the law should be struck.

The Trump administration’s moves infuriated many Republican lawmakers, still smarting from failed repeal efforts in 2017. They would prefer to attack Democrats for efforts to pass “Medicare for All," which they deride as socialized medicine that will eliminate all private insurance coverage.
