I’ll be appearing on the Destination Casa Blanca program to share my thoughts on the State Children’s Health Insurance Program and the question, “Is this legislation the first step to universal health care?”

I’m told that other guests will include someone from the Republican National Committee and the Obama administration. The host will be Ray Suarez, senior correspondent for The NewsHour on PBS.

The program will air this Thursday night (2/5) at 9pm EST, with encore presentations on Friday (12am) and Sunday (10:30am and 10pm). Destination Casa Blanca is easiest to find on DirecTV (438) and the Dish Network (843 & 9401). Otherwise, check here.
