practice. House of Representatives.

Eddie Johnson's 2009 bill Expressing the sense of Congress that the
global use of child soldiers is unacceptable and that the
international community should find remedies to end this practice,
rightly proposes that children should not serve as soldiers. Reasons
that a child shouldn't is because they are obviously young
inexperienced and would leave psychological damage. Even if they do
not die expending a life that can offer more than just his/her life.
Countries such as Arminia, which demands that young males to serve in
the army. In result many families flee the country in hopes that their

Janice Schakowsky February 11, 2009 bill expressing the sense of
Congress that national health care reform should ensure that the
health care needs of women and of all individuals in the United States
are met; rightly proposes, to ensure that all health care needs for
women and individuals are met.
A) I like the fact that it states why women should get health care one
by one with reasons that can be agreeable.
B) I don’t like how it states that other individuals should get health
care and there’s not as much support for other individuals as there is
for women.
C) I still don’t understand why emphasize so much on women and not on
children and seniority. Children should get health care insurance and
so should the elderly.
