 As the Supreme Court wraps up oral arguments about the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, we are afforded an opportunity to understand the benefits provided to marginalized groups like individuals who suffer from HIV.

According to a brief submitted by Lambda Legal as amici curiae supporting the Minimum Coverage Requirement (MCR) issue of the Affordable Care Act, "When the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“ACA”), Pub. L. No. 111-148, 124 Stat. 119 (2010) (as amended), was enacted, only 17% of Americans with HIV/AIDS had private health insurance, and nearly 30% had neither public nor private insurance". See AIDS.gov, Health Care Reform and HIV/AIDS: How Does the Affordable Care ActImpact People Living with HIV/AIDS? 2 (Jan. 14, 2011) (“Health Care Reform and HIV/AIDS)."
