Last July, a federal appeals court ruled that subsidies to purchase insurance were illegally granted in 36 states in which the federal government, and not the states themselves, runs the Obamacare heath insurance exchanges. The case is now being heard by the Supreme Court. The issue stems from the wording in the Affordable Care Act. Administration officials and Democrats argue that the way the law reads on the matter isn’t what they intended.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz, one of the people who obviously didn’t carefully read the Obamacare law she voted to pass, issued this warning:
Over 1 million Floridians risk losing affordable health coverage if the plaintiffs in #KingvBurwell get their way.

Or the Dems could have, you know, carefully proofed the bill before ramming it through.
Maybe you guys should read laws before you pass them, then @DWStweets #KingvBurwell pic.twitter.com/Q84KMWXdVi

@AaronWorthing @instapundit /@DWStweets well, well, well – welcome to the rest of us. Should have thought of that before you voted for it.

@DWStweets Simple fix: Read the bills you pass before you push them thru on a gimmick vote.

@DWStweets you mean those who already lost coverage because of ACA will loose it again? Hmmmmm do you see the oxymoronic nature of this?

@DWStweets Maybe you should've actually read the freaking bill before you passed it, dummy.
