It's unlikely the high court will hear and issue a decision on the health insurance law before the November presidential election.
The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to speed up its review of the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, rejecting requests by the U.S. House and a coalition of Democratic-led states that wanted the court to hear the dispute this term as the Trump administration and a host of Republican-led states move to dismantle the law.
The justices' decision on timing makes it unlikely the high court will hear and issue a decision on the health insurance law before the November presidential election. The Trump administration's Justice Department had argued that there was no rush to consider the law's fate, a potentially politically divisive issue for the Republican Party and more broadly the 2020 election.
