Oppose Federal Excise Tax Increases

Congress extended SCHIP through March 2009 without increasing the federal excise tax. The House of Representatives plans to revisit the issue on January 23, 2009 when it again will attempt to override the President's veto of SCHIP expansion. Please continue to communicate with your elected officials.
