  THIS WEEK in Northern California [#2334H] June 22, 2012 AFFORDABLE CARE ACT RULING: Next week, the US Supreme Court is expected to make its highly anticipated decision on the constitutionality of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

  IMMIGRATION REFORM: The Obama administration's new immigration policy would halt deportation of thousands of undocumented immigrants who arrived in the country as children, including an estimated 350,000 in California. Supporters say the President's action was long overdue and could boost his election year chances in some swing states, but Republican leaders questioned the policy of granting work visas to illegal immigrants while young Americans face record unemployment.
