Congressional Representatives Provide Differing Views on Health Care Reform
By jarvantes@aafp.org
If the Supreme Court rules that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is unconstitutional, Congress will work on retaining certain provisions in the law that enjoy bipartisan support. That was one of the main messages delivered by Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash., in the keynote address at this year's Family Medicine Congressional Conference May 14-15 in Washington. McMorris Rodgers told the nearly 200 family physicians at the conference that Congress is trying to anticipate how the Supreme Court might rule on the Affordable Care Act. "Should the Supreme Court rule that any part of the health care (law) is unconstitutional, we (Congress) are prepared to move forward immediately to try and prevent some of the chaos in the marketplace," said McMorris Rodgers.
