On Friday, a federal judge issued a decision in Texas v. United States, finding the Affordable Care Act to be unconstitutional. This decision could ultimately leave people with pre-existing conditions, like cystic fibrosis, without patient protections while also jeopardizing access to adequate, affordable health care coverage.

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has joined 11 other patient groups in filing an amicus brief to challenge the short-term, limited-duration health insurance rule, which threatens access to adequate, affordable coverage for people with cystic fibrosis.
