Message from Congressman Trent Franks, (R), Az.

I have, joined by 39 of my colleagues, officially filed an amicus curiae brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The brief makes our case for Obamacare's unconstitutionality under the Origination clause, which states that all bills for raising revenue must originate in the House of Representatives. Obamacare, upheld by the Supreme Court as a tax (or a bill for raising revenue), did not originate in the House of Representatives, but in the Senate.

You may read more about the case in the story below. To read the brief we submitted, visit the below URL:
