President Barack Obama signed a bill Wednesday expanding the health coverage to 4 million uninsured children.The bill went to the White House fresh from passage on a vote of 290-135. I think this is a good thing for our country. Our children now will be the future of this country, so we must help them succeed. It will provide millions of uninsured children with important health care coverage.The bill calls for spending an additional $32.8 billion on the State Children's Health Insurance Program, known as SCHIP, which now has an estimated 7 million children. They came up with the money by raising the federal tobacco tax. This news sounds great to me. There will be less children smoking and more health coverage. It will definitely take down the number of people smoking.

I also think it is grea that Obahma expanded health coveage to 4 million kids. Many people do not realize that the health coverage story in this coverage is in diar need to be altered. Smoking is also a huge issue with children. Although in todays society i believe it is less of a problem than in years past.
