Attorney General Martha Coakley is heading to Washington to make a legal case for the national health care law that was modeled after Massachusetts’ own landmark 2006 health care law.
On Thursday Coakley will defend the constitutionality of the national law at a National Press Club event called “The Affordable Health Care Act — Constitutional or Not?’’
Coakley will explain why the results in Massachusetts show Congress had a constitutional basis to enact health care reform including the so-called individual mandate.
