EDITOR’S NOTE: The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to consider four key issues as it reviews the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, the historic health care reform law passed by Congress in 2010. The issues — jurisdiction, individual mandate, severability and Medicaid expansion — will be argued over three days beginning March 26. Supreme Court Insider is featuring each issue in turn, looking at the arguments on both sides, as well as the lawyers who will appear before the Court. In the last Supreme Court Insider, we featured the jurisdictional question. In this issue, we examine arguments for and against the individual mandate.

In the hard-fought battle over the nation’s new health care law, the combatants in the U.S. Supreme Court have a single objective: to defend or to destroy the so-called individual mandate.
