Salt Lake City, UT – Families and child advocates are anxiously watching a political battle taking place this week in Washington - one that will decide whether 3 million more children will have health insurance. Observers call it the most significant health care debate in a decade, and it's pitted Utah's Republican senators against President Bush and Utah's Mike Leavitt, Secretary of Health and Human Services. Wednesday, Jenny Brundin and guests look at the reauthorization of the Children's Health Insurance Program.

Enrollment is currently open for Children's Health Insurance Program. For more information, call 866-KIDS-NOW or visit CHIP on-line
