ACLJ's Comprehensive Legal Strategy Challenging Health Care
With the stroke of a pen, President Obama signed into law the pro-abortion health care legislation that most Americans don't want but will be forced to purchase.
We have a comprehensive litigation strategy that we're employing to challenge the constitutionality of this flawed measure.
Numerous states - including Virginia and Florida - are going to court immediately filing lawsuits against this new law. We will be filing amicus briefs on behalf of thousands of our supporters in the lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the health care law by numerous states.
We appreciate the hundreds of thousands who stood with us in the legislative fight over this health care bill. Now that it is law, the battle moves to the courts. Join with us and add your name to our Constitutional Committee to Challenge the President & Congress on Health Care.
The fact is that this health care law is a constitutionally-flawed measure that we believe ultimately will be rejected by the courts. The individual mandate - forcing Americans to purchase health insurance under penalty of law - violates the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
Most Americans do not want this plan. That includes millions of pro-life Americans who don't want to be forced to purchase a health care package that funds abortion.
We support the litigation being initiated by a number of states and plan to file friend-of-the-court briefs in these cases. This health care law should not be forced upon the American people. We believe the courts will agree.
In addition to filing friend-of-the-court briefs in support of the states, we will be filing federal lawsuits on behalf of individual ACLJ members around the country.
These legal challenges will be numerous and occur in many jurisdictions. The constitutional issues at stake are significant and it's likely this will end up before the Supreme Court of the United States.
Please stand with us now during this important time. Add your name to our Committee challenging this health care law.
