Schumer, Pelosi praise Supreme Court decision preserving the Affordable Care Act aka “Obamacare”

Global News published this video item, entitled “Schumer, Pelosi praise Supreme Court decision preserving the Affordable Care Act aka “Obamacare”” – below is their description.

The Supreme Court preserved insurance coverage for millions of Americans Thursday, rejecting the third major challenge to the national health care law known as “Obamacare.”

The justices, by a 7-2 vote, left the entire Affordable Care Act intact in ruling that Texas, other Republican-led states and two individuals had no right to bring their lawsuit in federal court.

Trump’s three appointees to the Supreme Court – Justices Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh – split their votes. Kavanaugh and Barrett joined the majority. Gorsuch was in dissent, signing on to an opinion from Justice Samuel Alito.

U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer praised the Supreme Court’s decision on the Senate floor on Thursday, declaring the “ACA is here to stay.”

And during her news conference on Thursday, U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Democrats are happy with the Supreme Court saving the Affordable Care Act from another GOP-backed challenge.

In This Story: Vote

Voting is a method for a group, such as a meeting or an electorate, in order to make a collective decision or express an opinion usually following discussions, debates or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting. Residents of a place represented by an elected official are called “constituents”, and those constituents who cast a ballot for their chosen candidate are called “voters”. There are different systems for collecting votes, but while many of the systems used in decision-making can also be used as electoral systems, any which cater for proportional representation can only be used in elections.

In smaller organizations, voting can occur in different ways. Formally via ballot to elect others for example within a workplace, to elect members of political associations or to choose roles for others. Informally voting could occur as a spoken agreement or as a verbal gesture like a raised hand or electronically.
