The Supreme Court heard oral arguments on the first of the four cases challenging the 2010 health care law. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services v. Florida examined the Anti-Injunction Act (AIA), a law that prohibited courts from striking down tax laws before they take effect. Attorney Robert Long was appointed by the Court to argue that the AIA applied in this case, as none of the parties to the case was arguing that the AIA barred the Court from reviewing the challenges.
