The constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act is on appeal. Again.
Twenty States are suing to declare all of the ACA unconstitutional because Congress in 2017 reduced a tax to zero dollars. (Seriously.) The 20 States contain a collective population of 135,928,851 according to U.S. Census 2019 Population Estimates.
Twenty States plus the District of Columbia are on the other side defending the ACA. They have a collective population of 158,550,088.
To put the difference in perspective, it is greater than the population of the entire State of Florida. So even if everyone in Florida was accounted for, and even if all the people in all the States were all for or all against the ACA depending on whether their own States were suing or defending the ACA's constitutionality, there would still be 2 Million more people left over who want the Affordable Care Act's provisions to continue.
And that's the way it is.
