Court saga over Obamacare payments reaches end

House GOP leaders declared victory Wednesday in a long-running dispute with the executive branch, noting a new settlement preserves a judge’s ruling that President Barack Obama reimbursed insurers unlawfully under his signature health program.

“In a battle over the separation of powers, the House has prevailed,” Speaker Paul D. Ryan said after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit granted a motion to dismiss a long-running appeal in the case.

U.S. District Court Judge Rosemary Collyer ruled in 2016 that Mr. Obama could not make “cost-sharing payments” to insurers who pick up low-income customers’ costs on Obamacare’s exchanges, because Congress never appropriated the money.
