.@HouseGOP is holding #CHIP hostage by attaching it to a bad spending bill. It is time to quit playing politics with our children’s healthcare and permanently #ExtendCHIP.
We owe it to kids like Benjamin, who depend on #CHIP for health care – and their families, who’ve been waking up for months unsure if their child will continue to be covered. They need us to do our job and #ExtendCHIP, so families don’t pay the price.
Michigan was able to use millions of dollars in CHIP funds to detect and remove lead hazards from Flint homes, just another reason why Congress must #ExtendCHIP.
Health care for 400,000 TX kids hangs in the balance as Congress dithers. @dallasnews has details:
Without a $90m pledge from fed officials by 12/9, TX will prepare to shut down CHIP on 1/31 & notify parents 3 days before Christmas.🎄
#ExtendCHIP#TXlege
Today, we have a choice. We can vote to extend this critical funding for our nation’s children, or we can continue to kick the can down the road & create instability for these families in need. My choice is clear: #ExtendCHIP
CHIP is a vital program that helps 219,000 #Ohio kids and nine million children nationwide get high-quality health coverage. Congress must vote to #ExtendChip:
Today is a CHIP Day of Action! It's been two months since funding for the Children's Health Insurance Program expired. Pediatricians are contacting Congress to say it's time to #ExtendCHIP.
100 days. ONE HUNDRED DAYS.
That's how long it's been since the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) expired last year. Until Congress votes to #ExtendCHIP, health care for hundreds of thousands of kids across the country is in danger.
