Yet, Republicans and other opponents of the law want to strip some 13 million Americans of the premium tax credits that keep their health coverage affordable. “It is very disappointing that some ACA opponents refuse to support Americans who simply want access to affordable health coverage. This lawsuit is part of increasingly desperate efforts to destroy the health security of millions of American families who owe their health coverage to the Affordable Care Act. “The continuing obsession with dismantling the Affordable Care Act threatens the health care of millions of students, workers, women and families. It is long past time for opponents of the law to cease their assault on the health security of the American people, withdraw their radical suits, and recover their common sense. “I am very confident that the Supreme Court will issue a ruling upholding the ACA and rejecting the baseless arguments of the challengers in this lawsuit.” # # # | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
