The Supreme Court is being asked again to consider the Affordable Care Act with a challenge to the law’s mandates for no-cost preventive care coverage.

Lower courts ruled partially in favor of the plaintiffs, deeming some of the mandates unconstitutional and putting in jeopardy cost-free coverage of certain services, including several cancer screenings and a popular heart medication.

The case puts a pre-election spotlight on how conservative assault on the law has not ended even if the political will to repeal it has mostly dissipated.

The request for Supreme Court review comes after the high court has issued other recent rulings dealing with executive branch authority.

A 5th Circuit panel said in June that some of the no-cost preventive care coverage mandates were unconstitutional because the members of the task force recommended them were the sort of “principal officers” that should have been appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate .
