Families should not have to choose between getting life-saving care for their children and keeping a roof over their heads. But some families may be forced to make such a heartbreaking decision soon if Congress doesn’t

#NM parents get parenting education & training from the Maternal, Infant & Early Childhood Home Visiting Services program. The Special Diabetes Program for Indians helps Native communities treat & prevent diabetes. The GOP has also failed to fund these crucial programs.Show this thread -
Every day we neglect these programs, more people will suffer. It's time for GOP leaders to stop the partisan gamesmanship, put American families' health first, and work with Democrats to reauthorize these programs immediately.

Yes, it's unconscionable. To be clear, CHIP is for children whose parents are working poor. ( Many jobs in America don't come with health benefits today, particularly those in the service industry & part time work.)

I'm getting the impression that people in the service industry are second class citizens to this administration.

No, now Trump's big push is to pander to farmers. Not a care for children. Not saying don't help farmers, but why shouldn't the kids be taken care of first?

What are you going to do to correct the issue? You voted yes for the last CR to fund the government without making the demand for the Dream Act or CHIP to be included. What will you do on January 19?

Why do they depend on it through CHIP? If they feel so uncertain and scared.... stop waiting around for the government to get your medical needs and go get them for yourself.

Nothing is free in this world. The sooner you learn that the sooner you can receive medical attention.
