Appeals Court Upholds Obama Health Care Law
The Obama administration won the first appellate review of the 2010 health care law as a three-judge panel held that it was constitutional for Congress to require that Americans obtain health insurance, the New York Times reports.

The Sixth Circuit ruling "was the first on the merits that has not broken down along seemingly partisan lines. Two of the judges on the panel were appointed by Republican presidents and one was appointed by a Democrat."

First Read: "This brings to four the number of court decisions upholding the law. Two other courts have declared it unconstitutional on its long march to the Supreme Court."
