Call Congress NOW - An Opportunity to Improve Latino Children's Access to Health Care

Congress will make important decisions this week about a major health care program for low- and moderate-income children. The Senate Finance Committee is considering a proposal to continue the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), and we need to make sure that immigrant kids and pregnant women have the same opportunities as other American children to access health care when they need it. Congress is overdue to make investments in Latino children – the country’s most uninsured child population.

Call your Senators and the members of the Senate Finance Committee and tell them to support efforts to include the "Legal Immigrant Children’s Health Improvement Act (S.764)" in proposals on children’s health care.
