Answer

CHIP, short for the Children's Health Insurance Program, received a favorable vote from Ron Wyden. This landmark legislation expanded access to healthcare for millions of children from low-income families by providing states with federal funding to offer health insurance to uninsured children. It aimed to bridge the gap in healthcare coverage for children whose families earn too much to qualify for Medicaid but too little to afford private health insurance.
