In March 2010, tea party supporters protest against the health care bill outside the capital in Washington. With all the protests happening, the U.S. Supreme Court is considering a challenge from several states to try and overturn the health care reform legislation that President Barack Obama signed two years ago. "Supporters and opponents of the controversial law are gearing up for a message war like it's 2009." In 2009, with a new president in office and big gains in Congress, Democrats pushed legislation to expand coverage for uninsured Americans, fighting with the Republicans who warned the new health care bill with trigger an unprecedented intrusion by Washington into people's medical decisions. Obama signed his top legislative health care achievement into law on March 23, 2010 and later that year, majority of democrats were tossed out of the house after voters elected 87 republicans who campaigned on repealing "ObamaCare."
 * __Summary:__**

Relevance Congressional Democrats this week, with help from the White House, planned a series of events to highlight two major provisions of the health care law implemented in the last two years which is how they reformed health care laws. A major concern to democrats is that many americans are only vaguely aware of the key concepts of the reform and that some are believing the predicted outcomes that the Republicans said that the law would have that never happened. Democrat, Whip Steny Hoyer of Maryland, said that he believes that polls now show that time and public awareness about the law will help Democrats on the ballot this November. However, while Democrats fight and try to spread the word about the positive outcomes of the healthcare law that Obama put in effect, the Republicans are trying to reach out to people as well eager to talk about the failed/ broken promises of the healthcare law.

__**Evaluation:**__ In my opinion, I'm neutral between whose right or wrong about the new healthcare law that Obama put into effect. Obama's healthcare plan did have positive solutions to problems going on that he thought could be fixed. These things being rules extending health care coverage for those with pre-existing conditions, allowing young adults to remain on their parents' plans until they turn 26, healthcare benefits for senior citizens and lower costs for prescription drugs. I have to admit not all of the things that Obama promised us with the healthcare law happened but most of them did. For the Republicans to continue to bring up false outcomes about the law and Obama's promises or should I say have "broken promises" is completely wrong of them. Citizens will see through these false accusations and I feel that President Obama will be reelected and will continue to follow through with the promises he made in the healthcare law he initiated two years ago.
