Obamacare and SCOTUS, the sequel?

Politico reports:
The U.S. Supreme Court will begin its new term Monday and, once again, Obamacare could be on the docket.

The justices have been asked to weigh in on whether the Affordable Care Act’s subsidies can go to any American, regardless of whether their state runs a health insurance exchange or relies on the federal one. They’ll soon be asked, too, whether religious nonprofits have to provide contraception in employee health plans, a follow-up to last spring’s Hobby Lobby case.

And there is a third, very long-shot issue in the wings: whether the health care legislation was a tax bill that under the Constitution had to start in the House of Representatives instead of the Senate.
The struggles against the Obama regime.
