Print this article When former President Donald Trump nominated Justice Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court last fall, opponents immediately raised the cry that she would overturn Obamacare. Posters appeared all over Capitol Hill shortly after her nomination, warning of Barrett’s alleged healthcare extremism. Protesters gathered throughout the city to speak out against her nomination, warning that she would be the decisive vote in a case on the Affordable Care Act. In Congress, Democrats of all stripes characterized Barrett as a vote against President Barack Obama’s signature achievement. California Sen. Dianne Feinstein pointed to Barrett’s past criticism of the Affordable Care Act during the confirmation hearings and wondered if it would affect her thinking in the court’s case, which was to be heard days after the presidential election. Barrett assured her that it wouldn’t.
