The US Supreme Court rejected a bid by Republican-led states to overturn Obamacare, safeguarding the health insurance of millions with the coronavirus pandemic still a threat in much of America.
The nation’s highest court upheld the Affordable Care Act, former President Barack Obama’s signature health care program, ruling that Texas and the other 17 states did not have standing in the case.
The White House said that more than 31 million Americans currently receive their health care through Obamacare, which Republicans have unsuccessfully attempted to have thrown out in Congress and in the courts on numerous previous occasions.
