The program, which Congress failed to reauthorize last month, covers nearly 400,000 children from working-class families in the state.</h4>
<p>“It’s expected that Texas will run out of CHIP funding in January,” said Adriana Koehler, a policy associate with the advocacy group Texans Care for Children. “With the holidays coming up in the next few months, we really need Congress to get the job done now.”</p>
<p>Just a few months ago, advocates said it was unclear when the state would run out of CHIP funds. Some advocates expected the state had until next September; others said funds would run out in February.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>After Hurricane Harvey hit, the federal government waived co-pays and enrollment fees for CHIP recipients. That meant less money was coming into the program than expected. <a href="https://www.texastribune.org/2017/10/24/texas-could-run-out-chip-money-sooner-expected-because-hurricane-harve/"> READ MORE</a></p></blockquote>
