Increase funding for defense but take away funding for children medical. What could go wrong there?
In the short-term spending bill to be considered Thursday, House GOP leaders abandoned plans to provide a full year of increased funding for defense programs after Democrats made it clear they would not go along with that approach unless non-defense programs got a boost as well.
The short-term funding bill also would extend funding for the Children’s Health Insurance Program through the end of March. The program provides routine checkups, immunizations and other medical services for 9 million children whose parents don’t qualify for Medicaid and can’t afford insurance.
Congress failed to reauthorize the program when funding expired in September. Nearly two-thirds of states have warned they will run out of money for the program by March unless Congress acts.

I doubt Yahoo will be able to produce that for you, but it's safe to say it's not going anywhere anytime soon.

Last September it was up for a vote but wait
The House was poised to vote on a CHIP reauthorization this week but put it off because Democrats complained about terms inserted by the GOP, which included taking money from a public health fund under the Affordable Care Act.

Are you saying that the democrats didn't block the vote or just running cover for the democrats wanting kids to die?

The GOP used funding from the public health fund rather than its own funding, as it had in the past. Are you really that dumb or you just enjoy watching me respond?RaceBannon said:Are you saying that the democrats didn't block the vote or just running cover for the democrats wanting kids to die?
What this amounts to is the GOP want to increase defense spending and decrease health spending.
