President Bush would veto a bipartisan plan to expand the Children’s Health Insurance Program, drafted over the last six months by senior members of the Senate Finance Committee.
The vow puts Mr. Bush at odds with the Democratic majority in Congress, with a substantial number of Republican lawmakers and with many governors of both parties, who want to expand the popular program to cover some of the nation’s eight million uninsured children.
I think that President Bush made wrong decision because children are important and his action shows that he is ignoring children. I do not understand him. He was willing to grant amnesty to 20 million illegal immigrants. And yet he is not willing to expand insurance for American children?

Bush should have accepted this bill because as it is mentioned, "children are our future." Some families cannot afford insurances, so this program should have been enriched through this bill. I wonder why he vetoed it.
