WASHINGTON - The White House said on Monday it was confident that a landmark healthcare reform law would ultimately be upheld by the U.S. legal system.
White House spokesman Robert Gibbs was speaking to reporters shortly after a U.S. judge in Virginia invalidated a key part of the healthcare law that requires individuals to buy health insurance, the first major setback for President Barack Obama on an issue that will likely end up at the Supreme Court.
