signed by president obama in march of 2010, contained 450 provisions. the centero piece, the individual mandate taking place in 2014, drew the most criticism and since day one, opponents have vowed to gut the law regardless, including the president's republican rival. >> if it's deemed to stand then i will tell you one thing, we're going to have a president. i'm not going get rid of obama care. >> reporter: how will the justices rule? analysts say the three days of arguments last march provide some clues. it's believed that justice kennedy is the swing vote. he's been that and a number of 5-4 decisions. >> it's true he seems to be asking keptical questions of the government. >> reporter: others say watch chief justice john roberts who will be the architect of the ruling. >> if he decides to declare it unconstitutional, that is not going look political. i think he's going to call it as he sees it. it's quite possible to wind up

with something like on the arizona immigration law. a mixed result. >> reporter: if the court strikes down part of the law, house republicans say they will try to repeel what remains. on the presidential level, both candidates insist the ruling will energize their supporters going into november. in washington, craig bosswell, fox news. >> many medical experts across the nation have strong opinions about the president's healthcare law and the supreme court ruling. joining us now to discuss more about how the decision will affect patients and the medical community. thank you for being with us tonight. >> thank you for having me. >> and we know the decision is high. the high court could strike down the entire law or pieces of it. as a physician, in your opinion, what is the best case scenario tomorrow per patients -- for patients? >> i think it's for the court to upheld the -- uphold the

entire law and there have been a lot of patients benefiting tremendously from the parts of the law that have been enacted and there are children with pre- existing conditions that the insurance companies can't discriminate against. benefits that many families have been able to learn more about their health and get diseases taken care of before they're more serious, and i look forward to the court upholding the laws to build a better healthcare system for every american. >> and there is a chance the court could strike it down entirely. what would it mean for patients if struck down? >> and if it's struck down entirely, that would be a concerning situation for our patients, for physicians, and for our healthcare system in general. we don't have a good healthcare system in the united states. i think we're in a situation where a lot of your help depends on why you leave, how much you earned and what you look like and your current

health. i think a lot of families need more peace of mind and deserve secure, affordable, reliable, high quality healthcare. if the court decides to strike down the law, we're going have a major setback building the system that we deserve. >> there are a lot of americans against this, doctor. 28% of americans will be please deemed the affordable care act unconstitutional. the mandate forcing someone to buy health insurances is unconstitutional and what do you say to those critics? >> what i would say, the individual mandate and insurance mandate has taken up a lot of attention in the political arena and what is important are those provisions of the law that provide piece of mind. this law is going to extend insurance to millions of americans unable to afford it through no fault of their own

and the law is able to train more primary care doctors in places that need them right now and the law has a lot of provisions that go a long way to providing every american with that kind of security healthcare they deserve. i think the individual mandate took up a lot of attention and the individual provisions of the law are for all of us and they really do give us the healthcare system in this country. >> what happens without that reform? >> without reform, i think the insurance industry is going to have to do a lot of hard work and offering miles an hour affordable insurance. right now, i feel -- i see so many families struggling to make ends meet and insurance companies, if they're facing a situation where the individual mandate is struck down and the rest of the law is

constitutional, they have to rise to the challenge of offering us insurance plans that are affordable and high quality and respond to the needs of americans during the struggling times. >> and that is a high-stakes decision. dr. shiram with the nationalling ifs alliance, thank you very much for being with us tonight. >> thank you. and new developments, the house announced to hold holder in contempt of congress. and he's -- on the botched fast and furious gun program. and that could bring an unprecedented contempt of the attorney general. president obama used executive privilege on some don'ts in the dispute. the news edge on d.c. now. if you live in or visit d.c., you experienced the limited parking, an issue in every part of the city. the problem is simple too.

some believe because street parking is so el cajon, it encourages people to keep their cars on the street. >> a lot of people have a perception that parking is free. any developer can tell you that building a sparking -- parking space under ground costs between 20 and $50,000. >> reporter: some parking issues are temporary. case in point, how the large construction project taking place downtown these days. >> the bottom line is that we need some, light. okay, we can't live like. that. >> reporter: harold valentine lives near the o street market redevelopment. he said that out-of-town construction workers take up all of the thoughts and don't get tickets. >> that talk to project contractors. i talked to the construction workers and talked to everybody, look, you work with us, we'll work with you. okay? and nothing is being done. >> reporter: there is progress when it comes to parking. some referred to younger residents making the choice to ditch the car with plenty of bus, train, and some bike

transportation for younger city dwellers and that beats the spot. >> and they're considering a possible day pass for out-of-up to construction workers who have trouble finding legal parking. that is not a done deal. also, another parking problem that isy going a lot of attention is from campuses. some believe that out-of-state students shouldn't be allowed to have parking permits. and on the national mall, what do you know about that? >> i guess we'll go back to matt in a bit on that. moving on to the immigration standoff in virginia. the commonwealth lost its bid to have state troopers enforce the federal immigration law. i.c.e. officials want to focus on
