答疑:ldzh43http://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201207/20120705021633313025.mp3Chief Justice Roberts wrote the majority opinion for the court and was the deciding vote. He sided with the four more liberal members of the court. This came as a surprise. The chief justice is generally conservative, and conservatives hotly oppose the individual mandate.
Republicans control the House of Representatives. They plan to hold a vote on July 11th to repeal the law. However, Democrats hold the majority in the Senate and would never agree.
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney renewed his promise to try to repeal the law.
"What the court did not do on its last day in session, I will do on my first day if elected president of the United States, and that is I will act to repeal Obamacare."
Mr. Romney approved a similar health care law when he was governor of Massachusetts. But he argues that such decisions should be left to the states.首席大法官罗伯茨撰写了法院的多数派意见,并握有决定性的一票,而他支持另外四个自由派法官的做法着实令人吃惊。首席大法官一向持保守派观点,而保守派人士激烈地反对强制医保。
共和党掌控着众议院。为了废除这项法案,他们计划于7月11日举行投票。然而,民主党在参议院拥有大部分席位,所以他们永远不会同意举行投票。
共和党的总统候选人米特·罗姆尼重申他将设法废除该法案的承诺。
“倘若当选总统,我会在上任的第一天采取行动来完成法庭永远不会做的事情——废除奥氏医改。”
米特·罗姆尼在他任马萨诸塞州州长时批准了类似的医保法案,但他认为这样的决策应由各州自行制定。
