Supreme Court to Hear New Obamacare Challenge

SCOTUSblog: “The Supreme Court, moving back into the deep controversy over the new health care law, agreed early Friday afternoon to decide how far the federal government can extend its program of subsidies to buyers of health insurance.”

“By adding the case to its decision docket at this point, without waiting for further action in lower federal courts, as the Obama administration had asked, the Court assured that it would rule on the case during the current term.”

Jonathan Cohn: “The latest legal challenge to Obamacare just became very credible—and very dangerous.”
