Press Release of Senator Feingold

Statement of U.S. Senator Russ Feingold On Passage of the Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization

Thursday, August 2, 2007

“Today is a very good day for the nearly 100,000 Wisconsinites who depend on the BadgerCare program. With the passage of the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) reauthorization, we are one step closer to strengthening BadgerCare so even more Wisconsin families can stay healthy. As health care costs skyrocket and the number of uninsured rises, strengthening BadgerCare will ensure that many more Wisconsin families will have access to the healthcare they deserve.”
