Congressman Fossella fight the fare increases:
Congress recently passed legislation
to expand a successful program that provides health insurance for
uninsured children. This bill would help cover an additional 5,000
to 10,000 uninsured kids on Staten Island and thousands more in
Brooklyn. As one of only 45 Republicans to support the bill, I
believed it could help so many young people live healthier and
longer lives. It also benefits society as a whole by driving down
the price of healthcare. Unfortunately, politics by both Democrats
and Republicans have derailed these efforts. I have on multiple
occasions voted
to override President Bush's veto of the legislation. I have
called on Congressional leaders to negotiate with the White House in
order to ensure that uninsured children get the healthcare they
need.
