Supporters of Obama Care rally outside the US Supreme Court June 25, 2015 in Washington, DC. The US Supreme Court on Thursday upheld a disputed portion of President Barack Obama's landmark health care reform, in a major legacy-building victory for his administration. By a margin of six to three, the judges ruled in favor of allowing the federal government to subsidize health insurance by giving tax credits to consumers nationwide. Opponents of the Affordable Care Act -- better known as "Obamacare" -- had argued that it was unconstitutional for the federal government to subsidize insurance in this way in states that refused to set up their own insurance exchanges.
