Millions of consumers who purchased healthcare through the Affordable Care Act’s national exchange can continue to receive tax subsidies as the Supreme Court of the United States upheld [PDF] a key provision of the Act.

The King v. Burwell case argued that the inclusion of phrase “established by the state” in the Affordable Care Act meant that the federal government is violating the law when it gives subsidies to consumers in 34 states that didn’t create their own health insurance marketplace.

More to come.
