PIERRE (AP) — South Dakota Sen. Tim Johnson says he is pleased with the Supreme Court decision upholding the federal health care law because it provides a foundation for Congress to continue working to reduce health care costs and increase the number of people who are insured.
The Democratic senator says the law has already helped many South Dakotans. He says more than 9,000 young adults have been covered under their parents' health insurance policies and nearly 100,000 South Dakotans on Medicare have saved money on prescription drugs.
