We are approaching the 11th hour in the fight to expand health care for our nation's most vulnerable children. The State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), which provides health care for millions of low-income children, is expiring next month. A bill recently passed by the Senate and House would expand SCHIP funding and coverage, but President Bush has threatened to veto any expansion of SCHIP, based on the misleading argument that it would encourage children already covered privately to shift to public care.

Our partner organization PICO, which has been leading a grassroots campaign to extend SCHIP, is organizing a clergy petition to Congress and President Bush. If you're a clergy person, please fill out the form to sign on. If not, please send a message to your pastor asking him or her to do so.
