Department of Health and Human Services, she aptly notes in her New York Post oped piece:

Vinson reminded the nation that even in the face of a perceived crisis, such as the number of uninsured and rising health costs, it isn't enough that a law be wise or expedient. That law must also respect the limits imposed by the US Constitution. Those limits are not merely "formalistic," he said; they protect liberty.
