Covered California is extending the deadline to apply over the uncertainty surrounding the future of Obamacare. The original deadline to apply for January 1st coverage was last Saturday, but is now December 21st. The extension is in response to a U.S. judge in Texas last week declaring the entire Affordable Care Act unconstitutional. People who miss the December 21st deadline can still get coverage by signing up by January 15th, and will get coverage starting February 1st.
