COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Tensions are running high in West Columbus as lawmakers in Washington push ever closer to a final vote on President Obama's health care reform bill.
Both sides of the issue took to the streets today, holding their signs high and their voices higher in a rally along Olentangy River Road, just outside of the office of Rep.Mary Jo Kilroy (D - OH).
ABC6-Fox28's Emily Riemer reports Columbus police were called in for crowd control as parts of the street have been blocked off because of the number of people rallying.
