Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) discussed legislation she has introduced to provide health care to all children in her Hillcast Wednesday.

The Children’s Health First Act, Clinton said, would remedy the problem of the 9 million children that have no health coverage. “Health care is something that I’ve fought for my entire life. And I think you all know that I have the scars to prove it, ” the presidential hopeful said. “I’ve worked for quality, affordable health care for everyone.

“When I’m President we will have universal health care coverage in our country so that every American has the quality health care they deserve,” she added.
