Lake Forest Pediatrics strives to provide high quality, compassionate, and outstanding pediatric care to the families of the communities we serve. The well-being and availability of health care for kids is a very important matter. For over 20 years the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) has helped provide healthcare for children and their families.
It has been over 100 days since Congress passed funding for this program. In order to avoid a government shutdown by January 19th, Congress must pass a new government spending bill. We encourage you to make your voice heard by contacting your members of Congress to let them know the importance of including CHIP funding in this bill.
Call your members of Congress today:
877-233-9025 and be directed to the offices of your federal legislators.
Tweet to your members of Congress today and include this hashtag: #ExtendCHIP
