In an interview with Newsmax, Sen. Mike Lee predicts that the individual mandate provision in the healthcare reform law will be declared unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Asked to predict the outcome of the case in the Supreme Court, Lee tells Newsmax: “What I can tell you is that there are justices on the Supreme Court who believe very strongly in this principle, the concept of limited enumerated powers within the federal government, that there is a difference between state power and federal power.

“All nine justices agree, at least in theory, that the powers of Congress are limited, but there are some who, more than others, have been willing to actually put teeth in that recognition. And that is what this case is about.

“I predict at the end of the day that we will have probably five votes in support of the conclusion that Congress overstepped its boundaries here.
