GOP lawmakers have a big question for President Obama about the upcoming Supreme Court case that could undo much of his signature healthcare law: What happens if we win?
Republican leaders of the House Energy and Commerce Committee sent a letter Wednesday to the head of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), demanding the administration show its hand in case the court rules against ObamaCare this summer.
Given HHSs responsibilities, we believe it is prudent that the Department plan for the full range of potential outcomes and consequences of the Courts decision, leaders of the committee wrote in a letter to HHS Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell.
The lawmakers are seeking any and all information related to the administration's preparation starting with "all scenarios considered or evaluated."
Both parties have acknowledged that the case, King v. Burwell, is the biggest threat to the healthcare law while Obama remains in office.
