Fourteen U.S. states have filed lawsuits challenging the health insurance reform law signed by President Barack Obama, claiming the law violates the constitution. Thirteen state attorneys general, led by Florida's Bill McCollum, who is running for governor, filed a collective lawsuit, claiming it is unconstitutional to require everyone to have healthcare coverage. McCollum was joined by counterparts from Alabama, Colorado, Idaho, Louisiana, Michigan, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah and Washington. Among them, Louisiana Attorney General James Caldwell is a Democrat, while others are all Republicans, whose party fiercely opposes the reform. Meanwhile, Ken Cuccinelli, Republican attorney general of Virginia, filed a separate suit challenging the law in a federal court. Local media predicted the lawsuits will not be able to stop the healthcare reform, which would offer coverage to 32 million people previously without it, but it could keep the topic alive until the mid-term election in November.
