Supreme Court Starts Hearings On Health Care Law

The Supreme Court kicks off the first of three days of hearings on President Barack Obama's health care law.

But today's argument focuses on a more technical aspect of the law: Key provisions don't kick in until 2014. A 19-th century law would prohibit the court from ruling until that time. But both the plaintiffs and the federal government agree the Supreme Court shouldn't wait to act.
