Supreme Court, in National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius, considered two major provisions of Affordable Care Act (“ACA”) – the individual mandate and the Medicaid expansion. 26 States challenged the constitutionality of both these provisions. 13 States and the District of Columbia filed amicus briefs in case supporting the constitutionality of both of these provisions. Two States (IA and WA) were on both sides of the case because their governors and attorneys general took opposition positions.
