Insurance is regulated by the states. Its a 10th Amendment issue.

The constitution, and the 10th Amendment thereto, do not forbid the feds from making insurance an interstate business. Insurance as an industry has a far greater impact on interstate commerce, which Congress can regulate, than almost any other industry. It is for historic reasons that insurance has stayed an intrastate business, not legal ones.

Ann's bill superseding all existing laws might present a problem in determining what parts of Obamacare survive. I think it might have to be a little more detailed.

Did that stop ocare from being passed? Did that result in the USSC striking ocare down? The worst that could happen is that this law AND ocare are found unconstitutional for the same reasons.. and that’s a win..
