Now that we've gotten their attention, let's gets some more services for children!
In 1991, the message has finally gotten through to the news media and the U.S. Congress that "there are a lot of children in desperate need throughout this country!" Concerning benefits, with federal, state and local money combined, the elderly have at least a three-to-one advantage over children. Children are at greater risk today than they were ten years ago, and there are significant geographic variations in the health and well-being of our children. Now that the media and politicians are willing to use these issues, the time is right to make the best case for our children.
