It looks as if it is not just state attorneys general that are filing a lawsuit against the new health care law recently passed by the Democrats and signed into law by President Obama. The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) put out the following statement:
The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) became the first medical society to sue to overturn the newly enacted health care bill, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). AAPS sued Friday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (AAPS v. Sebelius et al.).
'If the PPACA goes unchallenged, then it spells the end of freedom in medicine as we know it,' observed Jane Orient, M.D., the Executive Director of AAPS. 'Courts should not allow this massive intrusion into the practice of medicine and the rights of patients.'
'There will be a dire shortage of physicians if the PPACA becomes effective and is not overturned by the courts.'"
