Children's Health Insurance Programs

Last Saturday, President George W Bush finally got the bill he wanted and signed legislation to extend the children's health insurance program. The signing was buried in the back pages of newspapers so you might not have read about it.

The president and a majority of Congress waged a political war over expanding the health insurance program to cover millions of children nationally who remain uninsured. After twice vetoing bipartisan bills to expand the program, President Bush prevailed with legislation that extends health insurance coverage with a small boost in funding through March 2009.
