Abstract:
In contrast to the bipartisan SCHIP bill the Senate and House approved last month but the President vetoed, which the Congressional Budget Office estimates would cover 3.8 million children who otherwise would be uninsured, the plan that Senator McConnell intends to offer again would not make any progress in reducing the number of uninsured low-income children.
