Cities Sue Trump Administration Over Final ACA Rule, Citing Coverage Loss Concerns
A coalition of cities, including Columbus, Ohio; Chicago; and Baltimore, along with Pima County, Arizona, has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration. The legal action challenges recent changes to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplaces, which the plaintiffs argue could result in 3 million people losing their health coverage. The lawsuit contends that the new rule, finalized in May, contradicts the ACA's objectives by creating barriers to affordable insurance. The plaintiffs claim the rule expands access to catastrophic and non-network plans, potentially exposing consumers to high costs and undermining the ACA's goal of broad coverage.
