ObamaCare Lives! and the Debate Continues
In its most significant decision since Bush v. Gore in 2000, the Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act (ACA),

For a tasty sampling of reactions to the decision, including the responses of House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D- Calif), we pulled a few tweets from the roundup at Kaiser Health News.
Victory for the American people! Millions of American families and children will have certainty of health care benefits + affordable care.
