When President Obama introduced the Affordable Health Care Act, several states banded together to appeal the constitutionality of the Act. On January 31, 2011, a federal judge ruled parts of the act unconstitutional. President Obama's law team formally appealed the decision in Florida v. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (11-11021). The appeal can be found at https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/USCOURTS-ca11-11-11021/pdf/USCOURTS-ca11-11-11021-0.pdf. Read pages 55-67 (B. Congress's Power under the Spending Clause) and determine:
1. The legal aspects in question
2. The argument for appeal presented by the President's team.
3. The implications of the act on the provision of health care in the United States.
