A coalition of Democratic-led cities, including Chicago, Baltimore, and Columbus, Ohio, has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over recent changes to the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The new rule, finalized on June 25, shortens the open enrollment period and ends a special enrollment period for low-income individuals. It also adds pre-enrollment requirements like income verification. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services estimate these changes could lead to up to 1.8 million Americans losing coverage. The plaintiffs argue the rule violates the ACA and federal laws, and they seek to overturn the contested parts. The Department of Health and Human Services defends the rule, claiming it will lower premiums and enhance system stability. |
