You can view the case filings, orders, and other documents leading up to this decision, available now on the web site of the Supreme Court.
The complete Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) is available online, but you might prefer to review the 900+ pages in paper, located at call number AE 2.110:111-148 in Odum Library’s Government Documents collection.
