FL to sue over Obamacare Medicaid expansion

Florida Gov. Rick Scott announced Thursday that his administration will file a lawsuit against the federal government for threatening to withhold more than $1 billion in funding for hospitals if the state fails to expand Medicaid. "It is appalling that President Obama would cut off federal health care dollars to Florida in an effort to force our state further into Obamacare," Scott said, citing a 2012 Supreme Court ruling that said the federal government couldn't put a "gun to the head" of states to force them to expand Medicaid under the health care law.
