Hillary Clinton pens bipartisan oped for children’s health care

“We may be from different political parties, but both of us have dedicated our careers to supporting the health of children and their families,” Clinton and Frist wrote. “This isn’t about politics. It’s about our kids and our nation’s future. What could be more important than that?”

The CHIP program was enacted in 1997, while Clinton was first lady and Frist was senator from Tennessee. It currently provides around 10 million children and families who don’t qualify them for Medicaid with affordable health coverage. CHIP funding currently runs out in September.
