Another S-CHIP Showdown

Eric Massa is holding a press conference at 11 A.M. today at the Rochester headquarters of the UNITE union.  The subject is the scheduled S-CHIP veto override, which is set for tomorrow.

Other than Kuhl's recent S-CHIP mailer, the only other event which might change how some feel about S-CHIP is Governor Spitzer's decision to include full S-CHIP funding in the New York State budget.  If Kuhl and others had supported the S-CHIP override, that $37 million would have come from the federal budget, not the state's.

Update:  Rochester City Newspaper has a story based on the press conference.

Update 2
:  Video, from the Massa YouTube channel, after the break.
