SCOTUS Reviews Healthcare: Day One

Hosted by

The US Supreme Court today began an almost unprecedented three days of hearings on President Obama's Affordable Care Act. Passed without a single Republican vote, so-called "Obamacare" is designed to bring America closer to universal health coverage. Who are the uninsured? What is it like to live without coverage? Employer-provided insurance is on the decline. How come? Would the Affordable Care Act (ACA) make things better or worse? We get the background as the court prepares to take on a case that could affect millions of people, including voters in an election year.
