A federal judge has ruled against a section of President Obama’s healthcare law, finding the administration overstepped its authority in subsidizing deductibles, co-pays and other “cost-sharing” measures. The suit was brought by House Republicans, who have unsuccessfully sought to repeal Obama’s healthcare law. The suit argues the subsidies were unconstitutional because Congress had already rejected a request for this funding in 2014. The Obama administration is expected to appeal.
