I guess profits take precedent over the health of these children. What else is new, whenever Bush makes any kind of decision..just follow the money...

Can you actually provide a link? It is my understanding that the money is delineated for children only, and that is how it is used in California to fund Healthy Families. However, many states called their programs such, as they hope to involve families as well. Is that so bad? Children need healthy parents too! What states are you referring to?

I am no Bush supporter, in fact i loath this current administration, but do not make your website become just another liberal rant that the right will stereotype. States are attempting to create universal healthcare (which i am all for), but the fact is that putting SCHIP as the batteground puts children who have no coverage at risk.

Health insurance from my husband's employer is over $12,000 a year for two adults and a child!! We could obviously not afford that, so my daughter and I are on a private plan with a $5,000 deductible which hardly covers a thing. It's so hard. This just makes me more angry!!! <br/><br/>Thanks for posting this :) This is just sickening! Health insurance from my husband’s employer is over $12,000 a year for two adults and a child!!

I just signed one of those petitions through Care2 not twenty minutes ago. It's sad that while we're supposed to be one of the greatest countries in the world we have some of the worst healthcare and education systems. Healthcare is a basic right and no one should be denied because of the lack of funds to pay. No one should have to worry about losing their home because of medical bills. Our children especially deserve the best and most often they're the first to suffer. NOTHING should be put before our future and our children are our future. I totally agree.
