New Documentary "Critical Condition"

The popular PBS series Point of View released their much-anticipated documentary on the national health care crisis this week. Focused on the personal stories of four American families, "Critical Condition" is a non-partisan look at America's broken health care system and the impact it is having on American lives and businesses.

With Texas having the worst uninsured problem in the nation for twenty consecutive years, it comes as no surprise that one of the families showcased in the documentary is a Texas family.

While the national debate over health care continues in Washington, more people must chose to or are forced to go without health insurance and the increasing cost of this broken system presents a serious threat to the stability of the U.S. Economy.

As the Texas Legislature begins it's 81st Session this January, Texas has a unique opportunity to speed up the solution process by making sure their legislators are talking about the health care crisis and the impact it is having on Texans.
