Florida v. HHS, Day 3 of Supreme Court Oral Arguments, March 28, 2012
Channel: CaliforniaAppeal
Date: 2012-03-30

Day 3 of the Supreme Court's arguments in Florida v. Department of Health and Human Services were held on March 28, 2012, on the following question:

1. Does Congress exceed its enumerated powers and violate basic principles of federalism when it coerces States into accepting onerous conditions that it could not impose directly by threatening to withhold all federal funding under the single largest grant-in-aid program, or does the limitation on Congress's spending power that this Court recognized in South Dakota v. Dole, 483 U.S. 203 (1987), no longer apply?
