Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on Tuesday echoed the White House’s criticism of a federal appeals court ruling, which would restrict the 2010 health care law’s subsidies to insurance exchanges formally established by the states, as opposed to those run by the federal government. “Two activist Republican judges sought to undermine a law that was passed in congress — by congress, upheld by the Supreme Court, that is now benefiting millions of Americans,” Reid said at his weekly news conference. “It seems clear to me that that decision will be overturned.”
