Didn't courts already decide this?
Yes.
Johnathan Turley was the plantiff’s attorney, House Republicans, and they won the case because congress never appropriated funds to subsidize insurance companies. Obama simply took $7 billion from the Treasury and spent it on his pet insurance companies. The DC court ruled it unconstitutional. Obama violated Article 1.
Despite Trump’s EO, he has no authority to issue health insurance subsidies. He would be breaking the law if he issued the subsidies. These suits won’t even have a chance in the liberal 9th. These 18 states are suing for the political optics. They will lose. It’s a VERY simple case.
