7. Florida..call...Kathy Castor (D)
Florida..call...Kathy Castor (D)
.............it was particularly disappointing to see Tampa's Kathy Castor join just seven other Democrats who voted against the compromise bill.

Castor has worked hard on this issue and enjoyed a prominent role in passing the original House bill.

Her office says she voted against the compromise because, among other issues, it does not make income verification as easy for families as she would like or create a funding formula as favorable for Florida as she wanted. But there were some improvements and significantly more money, and Florida's program is setting records for new applications.


Castor's vote to cling to the ideal over the pragmatic seems naive at best. Apparently, it's her way or no way.

9. This is for Representatives who voted NO. Assume Working Assets will have that info.
Mine, Republican John Mica, voted NO.

10. Mine votged against it as well
I wrote him and asked where his priorities were -- funding (and losing billions) in Iraq while children go without health care.

He didn't even bother with an auto-response much less a real answer...
