Today’s Action: Tell Republican Senators to stop neglecting America’s kids

Senators return to Washington for the first time in 2018, but they have some lifesaving 2017 business that they have still yet to address.

In September, Congressional Republicans allowed funding to laps for the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), which provides health coverage to 9 million low-income children and pregnant women around the country. Now, because of Republicans’ heartless political games, families across the country are being forced to choose between healthcare and other basic necessities like food for their children.

This is unacceptable. Contact your Senators at 202.224.3121 and demand they fund the CHIP program without delay.

This Republican Congress has made a choice that they would rather the super wealthy have as much money as possible even if it means throwing working families into turmoil over their children’s basic well-being. This is as immoral as it is irresponsible, and they must know that we will not stand for it.

Call 202.224.3121 or email your Senators and tell them millions of children are depending on them to do the right thing — and so are you.
