Rep. Grayson Unveils Website for Deaths of Uninsured

Democratic Congress member Alan Grayson of Florida has established a new website honoring those whove lost their lives because they were uninsured. Grayson says he founded NamesOfTheDead.com after a recent Harvard University study found 44,000 people die every year because they lack health insurance. Grayson announced the website Wednesday on the House floor. Rep. Alan Grayson: They themselves can no longer speak. But their families, the ones who love them, they can speak. And so, Ive established a website called namesofthedead.com, namesofthedead.com. And I invite all those people whove suffered the terrible tragedy of losing a loved one, whether a son or a spouse or an uncle or a mother or father. All of us whove lost somebody close to us because they had no health coverage, because they had no health insurance, and because they died, I propose that we all go to this website, namesofthedead.com, and we name them.
