NINE MILLION CHILDREN. U.S. SENATOR COREY BOOKER.

David, The Children’s Health Insurance Program, also known as CHIP, is in danger. What once was a program with strong bipartisan support, is now the latest victim of Congressional Republicans’ ruthless partisanship. Federal funding for CHIP ran out on September 30, and now 68 days later Congress still hasn’t renewed its funding, putting families and the lives of their children at risk. We must demand that Congress take immediate action to fund CHIP and protect health care for our nation's vulnerable children. Please stand with me today and take action to make Congress hear your voice... CHIP provides health insurance for 9 million children in the U.S., and we cannot abandon them. Some Republican leaders claim that CHIP is a luxury that we simply can’t afford. I say if we can afford a TRILLION dollars in tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans, surely we can afford to take care of children whose families are unable to afford health insurance. Help send a message loud and clear to Congress that Americans demand renewed funding for CHIP... Thanks, Cory Booker
