Schumer: Roberts Broke His Promise On Commerce Clause

[SunSeeker]

1. But the ACA does not force someone purchase a product because we all already purchase healthcare.

That is why Robert's (and the rest of those joining him on that issue) findings regarding the Commerce Clause are so disingenuous. The fact is, we all use healthcare. All government is doing is regulating how we pay for it. The ACA absolutely is covered under the Commerce Clause. Robert's crabbed reading of the Commerce Clause breaks from precedent and makes me worry whether he did that so he could set the stage to dismantle other progressive pieces of legislation.
