Oral argument today in Goudy-Bachman v. HHS

Oral argument will begin in approximately one hour (at 1:30 p.m. EDT) in Courtroom No. 2 at the Federal Building in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in Goudy-Bachman v. HHS. The district judge assigned to the case is Christopher C. Conner, a George W. Bush appointee. At issue are cross-motions for summary judgment by the plaintiffs and the United States. The plaintiffs' sole claim on the merits is that the minimum essential coverage provision exceeds Congress's enumerated powers.
