Tell Us What You Think of the Health-Care Ruling

June 28, 2012 | Read Time: 1 minute

Supporters of the healthcare law in front of the Supreme Court

The U.S. Supreme Court today upheld most of the health-care overhaul law, a decision that will please many foundations and nonprofit groups that have been working to put the new law into effect.

The decision will also affect many charities that care for patients on Medicaid. The ruling says the federal government could expand the pool of people who are eligible for the federal-state insurance program, but the court limited the government’s ability to penalize states that do not want to participate in the bigger program.

The Chronicle will provide additional coverage of the ruling later today. Meanwhile, please tell us what you think of the decision. How will it affect you or your nonprofit or foundation? Please comment below or send an email to Suzanne Perry.
