It's been 100 days since the Congressional GOP let #CHIP expire.
That's 100 days of uncertainty and fear for families of the 9 million kids across America who depend on immunizations, prescriptions & doctors visits through CHIP.
This is unconscionable and unacceptable.

GOP inaction has put access to affordable health care for over 11,000

#NM, 17 community health center clinics serve 330,000 patients in 90 underserved & rural communities. They employ almost 3,000 people across the state. Republican refusal to reauthorize the Community Health Centers Program puts these patients and these jobs at risk.Show this thread -

#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.

Can't help wondering how anyone could sleep at night, knowing they're even partly responsible for denying CHIP funding. Beyond despicable- there simply are no words to express how vile, evil, and morally bankrupt this has become. So much for 'Christian' values. NO compassion!
