| The Affordable Care Act will help make quality care more affordable for American families, including over 32 million people who will be newly eligible for insurance, seniors who will get discounts on prescription drugs, and small business owners who will get help to provide coverage for their employees. But national reform is under attack by opponents like Governor Elect Scott Walker who contend that the new law is unconstitutional and illegal.
Lawmakers in at least 39 states have proposed referendums, laws or state constitutional amendments that would block key parts of national health care reform, including the requirement that everyone share responsibility for improving health care by obtaining insurance if they can afford it. In addition, attorneys general and governors in at least 19 states have sued the federal government to stop reform. These attacks lack legal merit and appear to be driven by a political agenda. |

| | Legal challenges to health care reform will cost taxpayers money. Both legislative challenges and lawsuits will eventually be resolved in the courtroom at taxpayers’ expense. If there is no legal merit to the arguments against national reform, why waste taxpayer dollars to further an anti-reform agenda? With constraints on state budgets and resources, this is not a wise use of taxpayer dollars. |
