Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) today issued the following statement after the Supreme Court ruled to dismiss the California v. Texas Affordable Care Act (ACA) case.

“Every American deserves access to affordable health care. I’m glad that the Supreme Court denied this politically-motivated attempt to jeopardize the care of millions of Americans, including 1.2 million Nevadans with pre-existing conditions. The Affordable Care Act has been a lifeline for our state during the pandemic, allowing thousands of uninsured individuals to access care. I’ll keep working to expand access and lower health care costs for all Nevadans and Americans.”
