House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi says she is confident the Supreme Court will find President Obama’s health care reform law constitutional. Here’s Pelosi’s full statement on the Court’s decision:
“Today’s announcement places the Affordable Care Act before the highest court in our country. We are confident that the Supreme Court will find the law constitutional and Americans will benefit from lower health care costs and greater access to high-quality medical care.
“Millions of our nation’s families, seniors, young adults, and workers are already benefiting from the law. Seniors are receiving discounts on prescription drugs and free preventive services. Young people are gaining insurance by staying on their parents’ plans. And children with pre-existing conditions are now protected from discrimination.”
