Trump Suffers Huge Losses in Court on Healthcare Rules
Donald Trump keeps trying to undo the nation’s healthcare protections, and he keeps losing in court.
The latest loss came when a federal judge struck down a Trump administration rule aimed at enabling millions of Americans to buy cheap health insurance plans that do not comply with key Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) requirements. The rule was part of Trump’s efforts to chip away at the healthcare law after he could not get Congress to repeal it.
The judge said that Trump’s attempt to make cheap health insurance plans available that avoid the requirements of Obamacare was illegal.
It was the second loss in court for Trump in as many days.
The day before, another U.S. District Judge blocked the administration’s plans for Medicaid recipients in Kentucky and Arkansas to be subject to work requirements in exchange for health benefits.
The newest ruling, came from U.S. District Judge John D. Bates of the District of Columbia, who expressed his contempt for what Trump was trying to do.
