The Wall Street Journal reports:
This just in: According to a Reuters report, a federal judge in Pensacola, Fla., has ruled that 20 U.S. states can proceed with their lawsuit seeking to overturn President Barack Obama’s landmark healthcare reform law.

U.S. District Judge Roger Vinson had already indicated at a hearing last month that he would reject parts of a motion by the Justice Department to dismiss the lawsuit, led by Florida and 19 other states.
But in his formal ruling on Thursday, Vinson said the case would continue as scheduled. He had previously set a hearing for Dec. 16.
We’ll update the post with more when we get it.

I really think that the timing is everything. This could easily be pushed back into Jannuary 2011.

this case needs to be settled way before Dec 16. Group medical are due to be renegotiated for the 1/11 contract year. Rates coming in now are 30% to 60% increases in premium. We can’t afford that. On top of that, premiums will be included in employees salaries and we will pay taxes on that additional amount.
