All Children Deserve Health Care

All Children Deserve Health Care

As the Children's Defense Fund (CDF) explains, “The recent expansion of the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) was a strong step forward. But even with that expansion, 5 to 6 million children will still be uninsured and millions more underinsured.”
