If the GOP can capture 38 state legislatures, we can overturn this law, and with it the bulk of the idiotic commerce clause-based rulings over the past 40 years.

Why doesn’t the state of kali just make it a state law for everyone to buy insurance.

No surprise that DE supports it. Koe “Stand up, Chuck” Biden’s son is the AG. This, in spite of repeated efforts by many to join the suit against DeathCare.

Conflict of interest, anyone?

A decision to either buy or not buy insurance anything is "economic activity" that affects interstate commerce, which Congress has the power to regulate, the attorneys general said .

Mexifornia, you are one big piece of work. Why don`t you just place yourself under Mexico`s flag, secede from the USA and be done with it.

A decision whether to buy or not buy insurance is "economic activity" that affects interstate commerce, which Congress has the power to regulate, the attorneys general said.

By that line of reasoning (stemming from the unfortunate 1942 SCOTUS decision in Wickard v. Filburn), what else can Congress regulate? A decision whether the citizen must buy or not buy any item in your local supermarket, for example is, within Congress' regulatory power. Big Brother would be controlling even the spending of money citizens are allowed to keep after taxes. This is not the "road to serfdom," this is serfdom.

Furthermore, there is reasonable argument to be made that health insurance currently is not interstate commerce at all, because policies can't be purchased across state lines.
