Hundreds of people marched the streets of Sherman on Saturday as part of a healthcare reform rally.
The Recess Rallies were nationwide, as people across the country gathered to talk about important issues during Congress' recess.
On Saturday in Sherman Congressman Ralph Hall spoke to the crowds holding signs and waving flags.
They marched from the Federal building to the court house in the hot summer sun. But it was for a cause the people say they're passionate about.
The rally was an open forum to talk about healthcare in America, with Congressman Hall as the main speaker.
He answered questions from both sides of the issue.
"Well it means that people are having the chance to say something to the folks that represent them that they've elected to and have ignored them, that's basically what the tea parties are about," said Hall about the rally.
Organizers say the goal of today's rally was to inspire activity at the grass roots level in communities across the state.
And Congressman Hall said he was happy to see all the people out in Sherman's downtown yesterday.
"Well i'm humbled by it, and people care enough to come out whether they're for it or against it, agree with me or don't agree with me, I represent them and I want them to be heard," said Hall.

By Thomas Ferraro WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The biggest overhaul of U.S. immigration laws in a generation won bipartisan approval from a powerful U.S. Senate committee last week, but there is a strong chance that Republicans in the House of Representatives will end up killing it. The problem: House Republicans are far from convinced by arguments from party leaders that passage of the bill would help Republicans draw support from Hispanic voters. Many also believe any kind of amnesty for the estimated 11 million immigrants who are in the United States illegally is just plain wrong. ...
VIENNA (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Bill Clinton, singer Elton John and actor Hilary Swank joined thousands of costumed revelers on Saturday at Europe's biggest AIDS charity event, Vienna's Life Ball. Dressed in skimpy costumes for the ball's 1,001 Nights theme, or simply in extravagant drag, party-goers braved unseasonally chilly temperatures of 8 degrees Celsius (46 degrees Fahrenheit) for the outdoor party. ...
