Uganda supporters are taking some drastic measures to get Senator Tom Coburn's attention.
Since last week supporters have been camping outside of the senator's office. They are asking Coburn to release his hold on a bill that would give Uganda U.S. assistance. In that country dozens of children are abducted and forced to be child soldiers.
Today these supporters are starting a hunger strike. They say they will not eat until Senator Coburn sets up a meeting with them to discuss this bill.
