Gillibrand Pushes Historic Bill to Provide Health Coverage to All Children

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand has joined in the introduction of the Medikids Insurance Act, a historic bill that would provide health coverage to all children by 2015.

"Getting everyone covered with affordable, comprehensive health care is a national priority and a moral responsibility," Senator Gillibrand said. "As a mother of two young boys, I know how important it is to secure health insurance for all children. This commonsense bill is the right step to cover all young people. When we get everyone covered, we'll ensure better health, provide better opportunities toward a bright future for our kids and young adults, and reduce the costs of care for all of us."
