2,327 Kansas Democrats asked President Bush not to veto SCHIP today.

Governor Kathleen Sebelius and a group of 43 bipartisan governors joined together to show the President that our children and our states benefit from SCHIP.

Democratic Representatives Dennis Moore & Nancy Boyda voted in favor of SCHIP.

86 percent of the American people supported reauthorizing SCHIP, with seven in ten saying they supported the Democratic plan to expand SCHIP by $35 billion over five years.

34,000 Kansas children and 6.6 million children across the nation who would be covered under SCHIP were counting on Bush to not veto SCHIP.

And yes...you guessed it...

Goerge W. Bush vetoed SCHIP.

But wait...

Let's not forget Todd Tiahrt!

He voted against SCHIP from the beginning! Now he has the opportunity to stand up with common sense Kansans and vote in favor of insuring our state's children.

Write Todd Tiahrt, and tell him you supported our children from the start. Then tell him to do the same by joining Democrats to override Bush's bogus veto!
