Santa Monica, CA, June 28, 2012 — “America’s children won today,” declared Wendy Lazarus, Founder and Co-Presdient of The Children’s Partnership. “By upholding the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the Supreme Court has sided with making health coverage a reality for children across the United States. Nearly all of the nation’s 75 million children have already benefited or will soon benefit from the ACA. As a result of the Supreme Court’s decision, millions of parents will continue to have the peace of mind that comes from knowing that their children can get health services when they need them. Now, as we put this historic decision behind us, we will work with public and private sector leaders to implement the ACA effectively so it meets its potential to give kids a healthy start in life.”
