March 31, 2010 3:02PM # Will Debate Constitutionality of Obamacare Anytime, Anywhere By [Ilya Shapiro](https://www.cato.org/people/ilya-shapiro) --- SHARE Zaid Jilani at the Center for American Progress [put up a blog post](http://thinkprogress.org/2010/03/31/college-debate-health/) titled, “College debate organizers unable to find any law professors to argue health reform is unconstitutional.” Indeed, it seems that [none of the four panelists](http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2011483297_healthdebate31m.html) at the University of Washington Law School event had any issues with Obamacare. Maybe the UW organizers, who couldn’t find anyone with the opposing view, are talking to the same folks [who told John Conyers about the “Good and Welfare Clause.”](https://www.cato.org/2010/03/23/individual-mandate-is-constitutional-if-you-rewrite-the-constitution/) Because, as I said before, it’s not that hard to [find](http://www.law.georgetown.edu/faculty/facinfo/tab_faculty.cfm?Status=Faculty&ID=2124) [constitutional](https://www.cato.org/people/roger-pilon) [scholars](http://www.law.uchicago.edu/faculty/epstein) who have problems with this legislation. OK, look, I’ll make it easier: I hereby announce that I am willing to travel anywhere at anytime to debate the constitutionality of Obamacare. Whoever sets up the debate has to pay my travel expenses, but that’s it. Any takers? ##### Related Tags [Government and Politics](https://www.cato.org/government-politics), [Constitutional Law](https://www.cato.org/constitutional-law), [Robert A.
