The Biden Administration Tells Supreme Court to Uphold the Affordable Care Act
Recently, the Biden administration told the Supreme Court to uphold the Affordable Care Act (ACA). In a letter to the Supreme Court, Deputy Solicitor General Edwin Kneedler clarified the federal government’s new position of upholding the ACA.
