Ted Kennedy: Kennedy Urges President Not To Veto CHIP
September 28, 2007 -- WASHINGTON, DC— Today, Senator Edward M. Kennedy released the following statement urging President Bush not to veto the Children’s Health Insurance Program.
“The President and every Member of Congress enjoy guaranteed health care coverage. We owe the children of America no less. If the President vetoes the CHIP bill, overwhelmingly approved by the Congress, then our duty is clear. We will be back tomorrow, and the next day, and for however long it takes to see this bipartisan bill become law. The President has broken his promise to America’s children. We must not break ours.”
