G.O.P. Leaders Fight Expansion of Children’s Health Insurance - New York Times: "WASHINGTON, July 24 — Republican leaders of the House and Senate on Tuesday attacked proposals that call for a major expansion of the Children’s Health Insurance Program, to be financed with higher tobacco taxes.

“Republicans will fight these proposals,” said the House Republican leader, Representative John A. Boehner of Ohio."

Shame, Shame, Shame! Denying health care to anywhere between 3.5 and 5 million children. Republicans are trying to stop this by saying it is a step towards a nationalized health care program. They had six years to come up with an effort that would work. They failed.

It's time to stop hurting our children, and get something done.
