It set this country on a smarter, stronger course. And today, after more than 50 votes in congress to repeal or weaken this law, after a president ial election based in part on preserving or repealing this law, after multiple challenges to this law before the Supreme Court, the Affordable Care act is here to stay. The challenge was based on these four words, quote established by the state. Opponents said the afraid maze federal subsidies illegal in certain states. The chief justice of the Supreme Court, john roberts, said in his majority opinion, that he disagreed. He said the meaning of that phrase may not be as clear as it appears, when read out of context, and by using the words much exchange, the act indicates that state and federal exchanges should be the same. Lets not forget this was a huge victory for the president of the United States for his legacy. Its a huge victory for millions of americans who have Health Insurance right now, because of those subsidies. Outside the court, cheers greeted the official announcement of the ruling and the 63 decision to uphold that part of the obamacare law. The part that deals with these federal subsidies for Health Care Insurance. Lets go to our justice correspondent, pamela brown. Shes over at the u. S. Supreme court. Whats the reaction so far, pamela . Reporter well outside the Supreme Court, when that ruling was announced, there were a lot of cheers and celebrationing large crowds out here saying aca is here to stay holding those signing. The stakes were very high for this because this was a key provision in president obamas signature legislature, subsidies, helping people pay for those and people in lowincome middleincome bracket. So an issue here are these four words established by the state, that almost threw out obamacare, and could have caused major chaos. So, there was a lot of celebrating out here today, because now we know based on literally millions of americans, in states with federally run exchanges, can keep their subsidies that help them pay for Health Insurance. There was a lot of concern that if the court struck down this key provision, there would be chaos. Wolf . This is the second time that the Affordable Care act has been upheld by the United StatesSupreme Court. So youre talking to legal experts, pamela. Are the legal challenges legal . Forget about the political challenges the legal challenges over . I think the sense right now, wolf is that obamacare is here to stay. That there will continue to be challenges in the lower courts. In fact there are some right now in the pipeline. But none that could have such a big impact as striking down this provision would have caused. Because, again, this was key to the Affordable Care act, these subsidies. And i think what youre hearing from talking to people is that this is sending a message to the challengers, to take this up with your politicians, not in the court and its interesting. If you look at what chief Justice Roberts had to say in the opinion, he talked about that. He said look, in a democracy, the power to make the law is chosen by the people. Our role is more defined, to say what the law is. So bottom line we could continue to see challenges to the Affordable Care act, but not on this issue and none that could have the same sort of impact on people that use the Affordable Care act. Wolf . Pamela brown at the Supreme Court, thanks very much. President obama called it a good day for america. I want you to hear a little bit more of what he said in the rose garden, following this Supreme Court decision. My greatest hope is that rather than keep refighting battles that have been settled again and again, and again, i can work with republicans and democrats to move forward. Lets go to the white house, Communications Director jen psaki is joining us. You must be thrilled like the president. Give us a little flavor. What was it like . Did you anticipate this decision by the Supreme Court . Set the scene, the mood in the white house as you began to get this decision. Well wolf jun, we didnt know when this decision would come down. Many of us were dwathered for a meeting about trade this morning and we heard some screams from the hallway. And i can promise you, there were many hugs high fives. There may have been some happy dances. Im not going to name any names but certainly, there was elation here today. But, really this is about the American People wolf. The fact that 6. 4 Million People no longer need to worry about losing their tax subsidies. 16 million americans now have Health Insurance, that didnt have Health Insurance five years ago. People cant be discriminated against for having preexisting conditions. And our focus is on moving forward. Lets turn the page, lets put this battle behind us and lets move forward with implementing health care all across the country. Just curious, got a little bit more flavor of what was going on inside. You didnt know if the decision would come out this morning. You certainly didnt know what the decision would be. Under these circumstances, did the president and his speechwriters have two speeches ready to go one if they ruled in favor of the president , one if they ruled against . As they say, the boy scout motto goes you always have to be prepared wolf and certainly we were prepared. But theres no question the set of remarks that the president delivered today is the set of remarks he was hopeful they could deliver out in the rose garden this morning. Will the president veto any effort if it continues while hes still president of the United States to change obamacare . Well i think what weve seen in terms of proposals out there, a bunch of wolfs Walking Around in sheeps clothing. These are plans and proposals that are trying to kill the Affordable Care act. This really cemented to the American People that not only is it legal, but there are benefits this is the reality o that people are experiencing around the world or around the country. So who wants to unwind that and all of the benefits that people are feeling. So look we dont know what people will propose, wolf but our focus is on working on pieces like with the 22 states the that havent yet expanded medicaid. Theres more that can be done. We want to work with those states. We want to do more to educate the American People on how they can benefit from the Affordable Care act. But this is not about a legislative fight. Health care is a reality. People are experiencing it, and we should all Work Together to move this forward. What do you say to those people out there who complain about obamacare . They say their Health Care Costs have risen under obamacare. Well wolf here are the facts that we know them as. 16 million more people have access to health care. People cant be the American People cant be discriminated against for having preexisting conditions. Women cant be asked to pay more. People young people under 26 can be on their parents Health Insurance. The things are becoming more efficient, hospitals are doing more. There are a number of realities. The tax subsidies were an incredibly important component of what was in this law. And thats why today was an important decision in that it made it possible for people to have access. And weve seen some reports by economists including within the administration that were showing that this actually has helped many more people have access and brought down the cost in many ways across the country. Jen psaki, a very happy jen psaki and a very happy president of the United States. Would you say this is one of the two tor three happiest days as president of the United States for the president . Well its hard to rank happy days. I would say that this is certainly one where were just elated for what this means for the American People and looking forward to redoubling our efforts on getting people to understand across the country, how they can benefit from this law. And you can thank those republicanappointed justices including the chief justice, john roberts, and Anthony Kennedy, appointed by Ronald Reagan for this 63 decision. The democraticappointed more liberal justices were always expected to go your way. Jen psaki, thanks very much. Thanks wolf. Well have much more on the Affordable Care historic decision by the u. S. Supreme court today. Well talk more about the affect of all of this on the president s legacy. Well also get a different reaction from a republican member of congress. Not very happy on this day.

I want to update you now on the breaking news out of nations capital, and a major victory for president obama, the United StatesSupreme Court today upheld a key provision of the Affordable Care act, known as obama care. The decision means roughly 6. 4 million americans will continue receiving Financial Assistance from the federal government to help them purchase Health Insurance. Joining us now is indiana congressman, luke messer a republican a very vocal critic of obamacare. I know you must be deeply disappointed congressman. Were you surprised that it was a 63 decision including the chief justice, john roberts, Anthony Kennedy was named by Ronald Reagan that these two republicannominated justices decided to vote in favor of continuing obamacare . Yeah sure i was surprised. I think its a disappointing day for the American People. You know the decision today doesnt change the fact that the Health Care Law is broken. It doesnt change the fact that the Health Care Law is unpopular. And while there certainly have been some winners under this law, tens of millions of americans have seen their premiums go up. They have deductibles they cant afford. And so now we have to be focused on what do we do for all of those people who have been armed by this president s Health Care Law. Well the president points out that a lot of people have benefited by it. For example, parents now can deep keep their children on their own Health Care Policies until they reach the age of 26. Do you support that . Yeah i do. I support the fact that parents will be allowed to keep their kids on the law. There certainly have been some winners, but there have been a lot of losers, too. I talk to them every day. And what we have to do now, the Supreme Court decision has come. We have to focus on what we can do to help those hurt by the law. What about the law allowing people to get Health Insurance and no longer having to worry about preexisting conditions. As you know in the old days if you had a preexisting condition, the Health Insurance wouldnt necessarily sell you that Health Insurance. Is that new provision in obamacare something you support . Yeah i do support that. But i dont support tax young, Healthy People to pay for folks that otherwise, you know, fall within this law. I dont support the 30hour, fulltime workweek mandate turned law, that has decimated the 40hour workweek in america. Again, there have been winners under the law. There are some good provisions in this law. There have been a lot of people hurt too. For all protectactical purposes you have the majority in the house and senate you can continue passing legislation to revise or change or get rid of obamacare, but the president is going to veto that legislation and you dont have a twothirds majority to override a president ial veto. So whats next in your effort to kill obamacare . I think we have to keep our promises. Well continue to stand up to this president s law, including potentially reconciliation that would try to repeal it. Ive mentioned to you some of the areas of the law that we ought to try to fix. And i think what comes next for republicans here in congress well have to do the hard work of coming forward with our own plan. There are several different republican plans out there. I think youll see plans rooted in tax credits, trying to deal with the competition across state and party lines, or state boundaries and i think youll also see us look at medical malpractice reform and Health Care Savings accounts. But we have a responsibility now, if were going to complain about this law, we have to show the American People what we would do if this law was no longer the law of the land. Luke messer is the republican congressman from indiana. Thank you so much for joining us. Glad to be here. Coming up the florida democrat, the chair of the democratic committee, Debbie Wasserman schultz, is obviously elated on the result of the Supreme Court ruling.
