The Trump Administration and 18 state attorneys general are asking the courts to strike down the entire Affordable Care Act (ACA) as unconstitutional.
If the lawsuit were to succeed, 20 million people would lose their health insurance, and millions more would face higher costs for health insurance or health care.
But there would also be some winners from the lawsuit, because striking down the ACA would cut taxes sharply for the highest-income Americans and certain corporations.
In effect, the Trump Administration is seeking a massive transfer of income from low- and moderate-income Americans to people on the top rungs of the income ladder.
