A House Democratic leadership aide called the Republican proposal a "disaster," saying it would not cover 10 million children -- an issue that Democrats are unwilling to compromise on (Johnson, CongressDaily, 11/16). According to a House Democratic leadership aide, "The proposal that Republicans put forward would walk away from the bipartisan goal of insuring 10 million kids." The aide said Democrats also opposed provisions of the plan that would change the way states calculate Medicaid eligibility, which could result in some children losing coverage, and a requirement that states that provide SCHIP coverage to middle-income families roll back their programs, which also would result in some children losing coverage.
