63 UCLA L. Rev. Discourse 1 (2015)

handle is hein.journals/ucladis63 and id is 1 raw text is: King v. Burwell and the Rule of Law Senator Orrin G. Hatch ABSTRACT On March 4, 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral argument in King v. Burwell, a tremendously important case involving the administration of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. At issue in King is whether the president can lawfully provide subsidies for health insurance plans purchased through federally established exchanges when the text of Obamacare authorizes subsidies only for plans purchased through state- established exchanges. In this Essay, I explain why the president's actions in King were unlawful and why a ruling striking down the president's actions is crucial to ensure the continued vitality of the rule of law. AUTHOR Senator Orrin G. Hatch represents Utah in the United States Senate. Senator Hatch is the Senate President Pro Tempore, the Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, and a current member and former Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. this Essay is adapted from an address Senator Hatch delivered at the Heritage Foundation in Washington, D.C., on February 23,2015. 63 UCLA L. REV. Disc. 2 (2015)
