In the mean time, don't forget about our children's health.

Take Action: Our US Senators are deciding whether or not they will take a position to cap coverage for children at 200% of poverty and put only $5 Billion additional dollars into the program over the next 5 years. This would result in states having to freeze enrollment and thousands of children losing their health insurance.

If this happens, thousands of children in Tennessee who are signing up for CoverKids and thousands of children rolling off of TennCare will lose their health insurance coverage. Our Message: 200% of poverty is not acceptable. SCHIP needs $50 Billion over the next 5 years to cover all children currently enrolled, children eligible but not enrolled, and giving states the flexibility to cover children and parents above 200% of poverty.

Please makes calls right now!

84% of Americans say that children need be be guaranteed coverage!

Our two US Senators, Senator Alexander and Senator Corker, need to hear from you NOW.

Our US Senators are saying that they will take our views into consideration. Is there a question as to whether or not all our children should be guaranteed affordable, high quality health insurance?

Our US Senators need to hear from you today because a decision may be made in a few days. You need to ask them to do the following:

  1. Call Senator Baucus, who is Chairman of the Finance Committee, and ask him to put $50 Billion in the federal budget over the next 5 years for SCHIP so that CoverKids will not have to be cut in Tennessee.
  2. The $50 Billion is needed to:
    • Continue to cover kids who are currently eligible;
    • Cover kids who are eligible, but not enrolled; and
    • Give Tennessee and other state the flexibility they need to do what is best for families in Tennessee.

More than 9 million children from working families in America are uninsured, 150,000 of these children live in Tennessee. We can do better. Make your phone call now, today, this evening. Dial 1-800-828-0498. The decision may be made in the next few days. Or, go to http://ga3.org/campaign/childrenshealthcare and send an email.

Please take both actions, calling and emailing, and do it NOW!
