Nebraskans airing problems with health insurance

Associated Press - May 26, 2009 8:55 AM ET

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - Some Nebraskans are telling their health-insurance stories on YouTube and in e-mailed links being sent to the state's congressmen.

The 2-minute videos provide glimpses into the difficulties some people face when confronting coverage decisions.

A new video will be posted each hour for 24 hours. The posting started at 8 a.m. Tuesday morning.

The videos were gathered by Nebraska organizations interested in health-care reform.

Laura Larsen, political director for Service Employees International Union-Change That Works, says the videos will remind the delegation in Washington that their constituents worry about health care and that the congressmen need to take action now.
