March 23rd, 2012 by flanews

The US Supreme Court will hear arguments in the Affordable Care Act lawsuit Monday. Florida is leading the suit against the new health care law. In total 26 states are suing to repeal, what many opponents are calling Obamacare. Attorney General Pam Bondi, says the suit is about more than medicine. The mandate penalizes citizens who don’t buy health insurance.

“This is such an overreach by the federal government. Never in our history have we seen anything like this and that is why we have the strongest opinion in the country right now form the 11th circuit court of appeals,” said Bondi.

The court is giving the suit an unprecedented six hours, spanning three days; Monday through Wednesday. A ruling is expected this summer.
