BREAKING: Defending the Affordable Care Act in court today. BOB FERGUSON.

David,

Today we are once again defending health care for Washingtonians. Oral arguments are being heard this morning in federal court as we defend the Affordable Care Act.

A group of Republican attorneys general are challenging the ACA. They seek to completely eliminate it -- including its protections for people with pre-existing conditions -- without any replacement. The Trump administration refused to defend the law, threatening the health care of millions. 

Democratic attorneys general from across the country, including me, stepped up to do the right thing. We’re protecting your health care when the president won’t. I joined this multi-state coalition to ensure your voice is heard in court today when your health care is at stake.

I won’t let President Trump play politics with the Affordable Care Act. We’ll continue fighting to protect Washingtonians’ access to affordable health care -- all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Stay tuned for more updates on this important case. 

Bob
