Examining Supreme Court Nominee Kavanaugh’s Health Care Opinions

Brett Kavanaugh, President Trump's Supreme Court nominee, has served on the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit for over a decade. Writing on To the Point, Timothy S. Jost of the Washington and Lee University School of Law analyzes Judge Kavanaugh's opinions in the five major health law cases in which he has been involved.
