The issue had been in doubt after Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr.’s surprise decision two years ago saying that while Obamacare wasn’t allowed under Congress’s powers to control interstate commerce, it was valid as an exercise of Congress’s taxing power.

So the Roberts said that Obamacare is not a valid exercise of the regulation of interstate commerce. Roberts said it was a valid exercise of Congress's taxing authority.

Despite Roberts' proclamation that Obamacare was a valid tax bill, the Circuit Court says it doesn't violate the origination clause because it isn't primarily a tax bill.

Not interstate commerce. Not taxing authority. What enumerated power does Obamacare fall under?

Don't you remember this was John's secret plan to undo ACA. I learned that right here on FR. </sarcasm>
