Fischer Votes for CHIP, CR

Statement

Date: Jan. 20, 2018
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Health Insurance Government Budget and Spending

U.S. Senator Deb Fischer (R-Neb.) today released the following statement after the Senate was unable to approve government funding legislation:

"I'm disappointed the Senate was unable to work together to fund the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) for six years, take care of our military, and keep the government open. I voted for this measure and I am a cosponsor of a bill to extend the CHIP program. I strongly believe we need to get this done for children in Nebraska and across the nation."
