U.S. House of Rep. vs. Burwell: Lawsuit Given Green Light.
Wednesday, September 9, 2015
Here we go again...
""Today, a federal district judge delivered a blow to the Obama administration, ruling that the House Republican lawsuit against ObamaCare can move forward.
“The Court concludes that the House has standing to pursue those constitutional claims,” Judge Rosemary Collyer wrote in a 43-page decision.
The ruling is an early victory for Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), who has repeatedly touted the lawsuit to his conference. It also gives new hope to Republicans who have been so far stymied in their efforts to dismantle the five-year-old healthcare law.
“I am grateful to the Court for ruling that this historic overreach can be challenged by the coequal branch of government with the sole power to create or change the law,” Boehner wrote in a statement Wednesday.
Still, the court cautioned that Wednesday’s ruling should not be seen as a sign that either side will win the case.""
