Marketwired
Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and
prosecutes government corruption, announced it will host a panel
discussion: "Obamacare Update: In the Courts and In Practice."
Panelists include former Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum;
South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson; Betsy McCaughey,
president of Defend Your Healthcare, former lieutenant governor of
New York; and Lee A. Casey, partner at Baker Hostetler.
On February 13, 2012, Judicial Watch filed an amicus curiae
brief with the High Court challenging the constitutionality of
Obamacare, specifically the "individual mandate." On Monday, March
26, the Supreme Court will begin hearing oral argument on the
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as
"Obamacare." Brought against the Obama administration by 26 states
and other parties, the case Florida v. Dept. of Health & Human
Services raises questions about the "individual mandate" provision
of Obamacare, which would require every American citizen to
purchase health care insurance or pay a penalty. Judicial Watch's
panel will feature leading experts on the legal and policy
controversies around Obamacare.
