American Council of Life Insurance v. District of Columbia.


 In 1986, the District of Columbia Council enacted a law prohibiting health, life, and disability insurers from denying insurance coverage to individuals who have tested positively for AIDS or AIDS-related complex (ARC), or who have refused to take such a test. The Act also imposed a five-year moratorium on the use of AIDS screening tests for the purposes of adjusting insurance rates. Plaintiffs challenged the legality of the Act on both constitutional and statutory grounds. In upholding the legislation, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals held that D.C. has a legitimate interest in securing access to care and treatment for individuals susceptible to the AIDS virus, that the Act would have a positive effect on local public health, and that the D.C. Council intended for the statute to apply to insurance companies doing business within D.C., not outside D.C.
