Today, the American Freedom Law Center filed its opening brief in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit in its lawsuit challenging President Obama’s unlawful executive orders regarding the implementation and enforcement of Obamacare.
On July 4, 2014, AFLC filed this action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia against Obama and several of his executive agencies for engaging in unlawful executive action that exceeds the authority of the Executive Branch and thus violates the separation of powers principles enshrined in the Constitution.
The lawsuit, which is captioned American Freedom Law Center v. Obama, alleges that Obama has violated his constitutional duty to “faithfully execute” the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare).
This lawsuit seeks to preserve those structural principles enshrined in our Constitution that are designed to protect private individuals from the tyranny of government, and in particular, from the tyranny of a single branch of government that seeks to usurp power and authority not permitted under the Constitution.
