National Campaign For Children’s Health Care-
Add Your Name To The Petition Calling For Legislation To Provide Affordable, High Quality Health Coverage For All Children
The American Society for Reproductive Medicine has joined Families USA’s Campaign for Children’s Health Care - a national effort to make health care coverage for all of America’s Children a top national priority. You can help by signing the campaign’s on-line petition
(http://www.childrenshealthcampaign.org/) calling on lawmakers to begin work immediately on this issue and by encouraging your colleagues and staff to sign. A live Webcast of a National Town Hall Meeting on Children’s Health Coverage on January 11 presents another way to participate.
More than nine million children in the United States do not have health insurance. Families USA and its campaign partners, a diverse group of medical and professional societies and health advocates, are urging Congress and the Bush administration to address this issue early in 2007. We believe that the new Congress will take up reauthorization of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) early in the 2007 session. Your names on the petition will let your lawmakers know that the public wants them to begin work immediately on legislation that will provide comprehensive, affordable, high-quality health coverage for all children.
