On Friday, August 14, 2020, the U.S. Federal Court of Appeals held that the Trump Administration violated the Affordable Care Act (ACA) when it suddenly stopped paying for subsidies intended to reduce healthcare costs for low-income individuals who buy coverage on the exchanges.

On July 29, 2019, U.S. District Court Judge James E. Boasberg, D.C., held that work requirements intended to go into effect in New Hampshire could not be implemented because of a failure to adequately consider the effect on Medicaid coverage. Judge Boasberg previously blocked work requirements scheduled in Kentucky and Arkansas. Those cases were Gresham v. Azar, No. 18-1900 (JEB) (D.D.C. Mar. 27, 2019) and Stewart v. Azar, No. 18-152 (JEB) (D.D.C. Mar. 27, 2019).
