A bus load of people wanting health care reform hit the road in Wisconsin and Minnesota Saturday making a stop in Eau Claire en route to Washington, D.C.

The group, made up of people from college students to small business owners and health care workers, say they want their demands of health care for all heard by lawmakers this Tuesday in the nation's capitol.

They say one of their greatest issues is coverage for everyone regardless of pre-existing condition.

"I'm a small business owner and a cancer survivor and I have not been able to purchase insurance in Wisconsin in the 23 years since I've had cancer," says Remy Ceci.

The White House would like to have bill to sign within 2 weeks, but many fiscal conservatives in D.C. say they are unhappy with the large cost of covering every American.
