Nine million. That's the number of children across the country who depend on CHIP -- the Children's Health Insurance Program -- to receive health coverage. It's an enormously popular program -- but its funding expired on September 30. Republicans in Congress thought it was more important to focus on giving tax breaks to corporations and the 1% than ensuring millions of children can continue to have health care. Here's the worst part: If Republicans refuse to fund the program, nearly two million kids could lose health insurance in January. Add your name right now to tell Republicans in Congress to stop playing politics with children's health care. It's time to pass funding for CHIP immediately. When kids aren't covered by health insurance, parents are often forced to delay or even skip the medical care their children need. For children with serious illnesses or chronic conditions, there can be grave consequences for neglecting care. Since it was passed 20 years ago, CHIP has had bipartisan support. But we don't have to tell you that today's GOP is forever stooping to a new low. This is what we're up against, Pat: A Republican-controlled Congress that would rather give massive tax breaks to corporations and the wealthy than provide health insurance for the kids who need it most. Time is running out: Join us right now to demand that Republicans in Congress reauthorize CHIP funding before tomorrow's deadline. Thanks for making your voice heard. The Democrats |
