Obamacare subsidies preserved in US Supreme Court ruling

By: BBC News

The US Supreme Court has upheld a key portion of President Barack Obama’s healthcare law, preserving health insurance for millions of Americans.

In a 6-3 decision, the justices said that tax subsidies that make health insurance affordable for low-income individuals can continue.

The ruling preserves the law known as Obamacare, which Mr Obama considers a major part of his presidential legacy.

Republicans have vowed to continue fighting the law.

“We’ve got more work to do, but what we’re not going to do is unravel what has now been woven into the fabric of America,” Mr Obama said.
