1Opinion of the Court
OPINION BY
Judge SIMPSON.
In an effort to increase funding, Petitioners 1 filed an amended petition for review. It challenges the validity of amendments to regulations for nursing facility payment rates under Pennsylvania’s medical assistance program. Specifically, Petitioners seek a declaration that the amended regulations2 are unenforceable because they were authorized by the Act of July 7, *6292005, P.L. 177 (hereinafter “Act 42”), which is allegedly unconstitutional on several grounds. Before the Court are the Department of Public Welfare’s (DPW) preliminary objections.
