there is a lot at stake with this, particularly here in california where the state has moved aggressively to go ahead and implement this law that was signed in 2010. already about 400,000 low income californians receive some sort of service through this. the law contains a number of consumer protections. we spoke with one woman among million who is have health insurance because of the affordable care act that many call obamacare. it was signed into law by president obama in 2010 and at least 26 states are among those challenging it. a key question for the supreme court, can congress require americans to buy something. under the law everyone will have health insurance or pay a penalty. for this woman it works giving the teacher a break. >> it saved me a lot of money simply on doctor visits and dental visits and health care and reproductive care and saved

me probably over thousands of dollars. >> reporter: part of the government argument is that health care reform was passed in 2009 in part because 50 million people were not insured. and that cost a lot for them being shifted to other people like doctors and hospitals. the court could do a couple of things. could uphold the law, strike it down or allow parts of the law to stand as is. reporting live in san francisco, christie smith, "today in the bay." >> thank you. make sure to stay with nbc bay area for the supreme court's decision due at about 7:00 this morning, just after that hour. that will be our time. matt lauer and a team of nbc reporters will have a special report when this one is released. you can find details of that ruling at nbcbayarea.com. >> new this morning, a motorcyclist is dead after crashing his bike in the south bay. it happened on north first street and nortech parkway. police found the 38-year-old driver down in the middle of the

buy something. the changers include 26 states. the question is, can congress require americans to buy something when it comes to health insurance. under the law everyone would have to have health insurance or pay a pen a. many call the law obama care and the government argument is health care reform was passed in part because 50 million americans lacked health insurance twoyn 009 and the cost for caring for those without insurance was spiraling out of control. even after the ruling many predict the health care crisis will go on. >> people who come into health care today and it's a great frustration for doctors and hospitals to not have resources associated with insurance to help take care of people. >> reporter: the supreme court could do a couple of things. it could uphold the law as s strike it completely, or decide to allow parts of the law to stand. reporting live, christie smith,

find out if president obama's health care law will stand up in the highest court in the country. >> this one has a major ruling that will impact your health and the presidential campaign trail. tracie potts live outside the supreme court this morning. she has a look at how the decision will affect politics. >> reporter: and jon and laura, good morning. it's going to affect nearly everyone in this country, whether or not they have health insurance. you can probably hear some noise. there are demonstrators for and against this health law and frankly, for other unrelated health issues here as well. like medicare which is really not part of this health law. what the court will look at today mainly is the individual mandate. can the federal government require everyone to buy into the system, to buy health insurance f. that doesn't stay in dan rest of the law stand like the provision that allows young adults to stay on their parents'

insurance or banned discrimination against people who are older or have pre-existing conditions. the other chunk is medicaid t government's insurance for low income americans, can that expansion happen, is it constitutional. and then there is a chance, not very likely, that the court may say we can't make a decision until much of it is implemented, that penalty is not actually going to happen for a couple more years, 2014. >> if the court does not strike down the entire law the house will move to repeal what's left. >> if they say looks it passes the constitution, it's still bad policy and that will mean if i'm elect weird going to repeal it and replace it. >> reporter: we're expecting to get that decision shortly after 10:00 a.m. eastern time in about an hour and a half or so from now. it will be an historic decision that will certainly have an

impact on the presidential campaign. i'm tracie potts. >> thank you. that's why we bring in larry gerston to talk about the political ramifications. good morning, larry. thank you for getting up early. >> of course. >> this is a huge decision that is coming down. i guess it depends on what the public stance is. you think people are going to feel relieved or angry? >> that's always the question. there has been a divided opinion about this case just about as many have been opposed as in favor. when you ask them what do you think about kids under 26, pre-existing conditions. but when you ask them about the act itself, no, a lot of people say not a good idea. how dhauz come down to the presidential election. that's a good question. no question that if the court strikes down the individual mandate that's the heart of the case. that's what the president and mr. romney will be talking about from now until november 6.

>> the government telling me what to buy and not buy. if it does pass, what a memorable thing for obama to you know, have in his presidential campaign. >> it will be the most instrumental piece of legislation since medicare passed in 1965. it will affect between 35 and 50 million people. most of those will have to get insurance. the question will be how you feel about that. the the constitution has a commerce clause, that's what this fid is all about. whether it can allow the nation to go ahead and force people to do this, require them to do that. it's a game breaker. >> we can't wait to see what the supreme court says on this. we'll grab a cup of coffee for you. all of us, stay with nbc bay area and nbcbayarea.com for more on the health care reform
