President Bush may not have had so much of a problem with the bill if hadn't covered some families earning up to $80K/yr and children? up to the age of 25.

It covered up to 3 times the federal poverty rate which is not 80K. This is the first I've heard of 25 year olds. Do you have a source? It was a bipartisan bill.
