What changed

Child uninsured rose 3.9 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 7.5% to 11.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.9pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. That is movement in the wrong direction.
