What’s Next
The case will likely go to the U.S. Court of Appeals 5th Circuit, and then possibly on to the U.S. Supreme Court.
However, pending the appeal, the law will remain in place. White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders announced, “Obamacare has been struck down by a highly respected judge. The judge’s decision vindicates President Trump’s position that Obamacare is unconstitutional. Once again, the President calls on Congress to replace Obamacare and act to protect people with preexisting conditions and provide Americans with quality affordable healthcare. We expect this ruling will be appealed to the Supreme Court. Pending the appeal process, the law remains in place.”
