"The printing industry is pushing for repeal of the employer mandate," Lyons adds. "Those mandates are the two pillars that hold the entire law together. If it's not constitutional, the entire law falls apart."

Repealing the employer mandate would pass the House, but has no chance in the Senate and President Obama would never sign it, according to Lyons. Thus, two options are more realistic—either the Supreme Court finds it inseverable or Obama fails to get re-elected, and the Republican leadership repeals it.
