From Gateway Pundit:

6:51 PM (3 hours ago)6 More States Join Lawsuit Challenging Unpopular Obamacare Bill – 26 Total!from Gateway Pundit by Jim HoftA majority of states have now joined a federal lawsuit challenging the democrat’s unpopular Obamacare bill.


At least 55% of American voters want the unpopular democratic bill repealed. Only 40% say they don’t want it repealed.

The Florida BizJournal reported, via Free Republic:



Six more states are joining Florida’s federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of health care reform.



With the addition of Iowa, Ohio, Kansas, Wyoming, Wisconsin and Maine, 26 states are now challenging the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which was signed into law by President Barack Obama in March.



That same month, then-Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum filed the original federal lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, U.S. Department of Treasury and the U.S. Department of Labor.



The National Federation of Independent Business joined the legal challenge in May.



“It sends a strong message that more than half of the states consider the health care law unconstitutional and are willing to fight it in court,” said new Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is taking up where McCollum left off. “I look forward to continuing to defend Florida’s families and businesses against this unconstitutional law and upholding the Constitution.”
