Speaker 1: Well, Obamacare is back at the news. Last month, the
Speaker 1: Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled the Obamacare mandate forcing
Speaker 1: everybody to buy health insurance is unconstitutional. But while ruling
Speaker 1: against the individual mandate, they did not make a decision
Speaker 1: about the whole Obamacare law. They sent the case back
Speaker 1: to the Texas District judge who originally ruled Obamacare is
Speaker 1: entirely on constitution. Now that judge was ordered to conduct
Speaker 1: a more searching inquiry to see if parts of Obamacare
Speaker 1: can survive without the mandate. This process will take at
Speaker 1: least a year, putting the question beyond the election. So
Speaker 1: panic set in. Congressional Democrats and blue state Democrats immediately
Speaker 1: formed a coalition to save Obamacare. Now. This week, that coalition,
Speaker 1: led by California's Attorney general, asked the Supreme Court to intervene.
Speaker 1: They begged the Court to fast track a challenge to
Speaker 1: the Fifth Circuit ruling declaring the mandate unconstitutional. Democrats wanted
Speaker 1: to restore the mandate, and they wanted a hot Obamacare
Speaker 1: election fight. Well, the Supreme Court didn't take debate. On Tuesday,
Speaker 1: they issued a one sentence order telling Democrats they're not
Speaker 1: getting involved. So As of this moment, the Obamacare mandates
Speaker 1: still unconstitutional, but Democrats have to wait for the big
Speaker 1: Obamacare ruling until after the election. This is what a
Speaker 1: good day in court for some of us looks like,
Speaker 1: so enjoy it while you can.
