Republicans rally against Health Care Bill

Republicans hosted a rally against Democrats' health care reform, calling on those who attend to track down their elected representatives in Congress and put pressure on them to think twice about voting for the more than $1 trillion health care overhaul.

House Republican leader John Boehner of Ohio told the crowd gathered on the lawn near the West Front of the Capitol, “This bill is the greatest threat to freedom that I have seen.”

The demonstrators came to Washington by plane, bus and other means to send a message to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., as they press ahead with health care legislation.
