Thousands of Youth Rally for Health Coverage
Congress continues to debate health reform. Meanwhile, thousands of children stepped up and took the message that children need health coverage now to their communities and Members of Congress.

Young people in 24 states and 61 cities did their part to raise awareness and demand comprehensive health coverage for every child by writing letters to and visiting elected officials, joining together for marches and rallies, and leading awareness activities.

Asher Heimermann is a teenager from Sheboygan, Wisconsin. You can learn more information about Heimermann by visiting his official website at www.AsherHeimermann.com.

3. Young people used to not care about health care in elections
That is definitely changing. I'm seeing more and more young people ask about this issue at Obama town hall meetings.
