PP-ACA Results State-by-State

By Lena Groeger
ProPublica

Experts estimate that nearly 16 million Americans could be added to the Medicaid rolls by 2019 under an expansion in the Affordable Care Act. But, the Supreme Court ruled last Thursday that states can opt out without risk of losing federal support for Medicaid, raising the stakes that some may do so.

The Big Picture

Here is a look at forecast growth in state Medicaid rolls under the expansion. Twenty-six challenged the act in court.

On the PP-ACA

By Lena Groeger ProPublica

Yesterday, the Supreme Court began hearing arguments on the health care reform law. So, in this essay, we made a map of the possible outcomes following the Court’s schedule over the next three days.

The Court will hear all three days of arguments, even if they eventually decide not to decide the bulk of the case, and is unlikely to issue a decision on the case until late June or early July.

A Side-by-Side Comparison

By Lena Groeger
ProPublica

The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act, or Stock Act, recently passed in both the House and Senate. The new law would make it easier for the SEC to prosecute federal officials from all three branches who trade equities like stocks based on nonpublic information they receive in the course of their duties.

The versions passed in each chamber are similar, but have notable distinctions that will have to be hashed out when legislators from the two chambers eventually meet.

Assessment

Here, we break down the main differences, with real-life scenarios that illustrate activities the bill targets
