i think part of the problem is they tested a few at a time. they didn't do appropriate testing. >> you feel it's good former. >> i think it's great. this is a democracy. this is actually a moderate plan. the left wing of the democratic party was not happy because at its core is private health insurance. >> some feel it's socialized. >> it's not. what is in the government taking over. it's private doctors, private insurance companies, and you know between you and me, i would like to know someone is watching out for me between me and my insurance company. the insurance companies aren't evil. they are trying to do the right thing but it's about making money. >> and the letter saying i'm canceled. what do i do? >> 95% of people with insurance won't be canceled. it's a very small number. those that are canceled, frankly half of them are going to get a better deal by going online and be patient. they will be able to go online. what the president said today is that the other half, that

don't want to go online and get a better deal can stay put. there are some if,s and buts. he is trying to make good on his promise. >> how long before you think this will all be straightened out? >> medicare took years. i don't -- the first year, probably three until things go smoothly. the main point is there are a lot of people in our state and the viewing audience that don't have access to health care and never have and this will help most of them. >> so this is a good deal for some? >> it's a good deal for many. i would say for most and the people that don't think it's a good deal are the ones that are probably going to get more for their buck that have to pay more and then there are some, that's what insurance is about. some are sick, they don't pay the full rate, some are healthy and pay more. your choice is to pay taxes or the insurance company. >> thank you. >> thank you for having me. >> i get it better now. don't you? >> thank you. >> two secret service

>> finally >> finally. >> finally. >> reporter: unfortunately its not quite final yet. the faa is requiring each domestic airline to get each air craft safety certified. right now it's a weird period where you can use your devices on some planes but not on others. jetblue was quick to get certified. their flight on november 1st was the first one to allow use of personal electronic devices. delta also approved ped's on the first but only on delta mainline flights, ott the regional jets. you can see how this gets confusing. i was just on a united states airways flight where a cabin had to be told something to the effect of hey, we know the faa said you can use this stuff but turn it off because you can't use it here yet a few days before the announcement southwest announced it was allowing customers to before outer loop i-pad -- borrow i-

pads but they weren't allowing customers to use them yet. remember regardless of the carrier you are still not going to be able to use a cell and larger devices still have to be stowed. we have all waited this long. i don't mind waiting a few weeks longer for the final to be finalized. >> more stories like this watch the list. you can watch it week nights at seven with our nikki followed by let's ask america right here. >> it seems more of us are picking airplanes when we travel and the total number of passengers for the first nine ins of the year was up 3%. passenger complaints have dropped by 14%. the biggest improvement came in a drop in complaints isn't reservation and ticketing problem. >> we have tough news to tell you about -- about the

olympics. last month the swimming great resumed occasional training at the north baltimore aquatic club. his coach called it more of an effort to get in shape rather than a come back. still by subjecting himself to drug testing, phelps was set himself up to start competing again by next summer if he wants too. the fourth in line to the throne prince harry joined the wounded servicemen and women today. he is launching the walking the wound south pole allied alliance. they will travel sunday to cape town and then to isn't art card antartica. >> anchorman the exhibit opens today in washington. it features costumes, propers and footage from the popular movie. starring will farrell. it also includes a recreation

holiday season you may think about a donation to charity. >> but you have to check out the organization behind the cause and that's what a we did. dipping in to what organization is claiming to help police officer's families. >> reporter: it seems like a great time for a great cause you go to a rock concert, hear music and the money goes to benefit the families of police officers. that's what one group locally says they do but we wanted proof. we can't find anything. can you answer that where is the money going? consider heavy metal with a heart. that was the pitch behind a local organization claiming to be a nonprofit. they staged concerts in white marsh they said would help pay for funerals for fallen officers, scholarships for their children and one day a memorial to the men and women in blue who die outside the line of duty. we couldn't find any official paperwork so we started asking what happens to the honey? experts say it should be easy

to explain. >> that's the main thing. there has to be. there has to be a paper trail. there has to be responsibility. >> reporter: and tonight what we found when we started digging in to the group called fallen blue. we will show you the changes they made after we started asking questions. have you to ask questions before you donate. nonprofits talk about first and foremost why is it important to dig in and find out about the organizations and nonprofits before you give them any of your money. >> we do think it's best to learn about an organization before you open your checkbook. first and foremost you need to make sure the organization's mission is in line with your own giving goals and secondly you should really look a little more about their mission, their programs and services. we have a standards for silence program exsense and that calls for a yearly report reporting who is on the staff, the board

and where the money is coming and going. look for that report or request one. >> reporter: and something we talk about tonight, the importance of know figure a group is registered. if they are looked at by the secretary of state or registered with the irs. >> an organization is not a tax exempt charity unless it's registered with the irs. tax exempt is a technical term and they must be a 501c3 or other charity. that's critical. registering with the secretary of state lets you make charity solicitations in maryland and an organization must be register. >> reporter: you know, a lot of people want to give after a crisis. they are looking for organizations, where do they go to find options that organizations they trust? >> you can go to our website

at maryland nonprofits.org. we have a list of all the organization that are certified. that's a third party review that you can trust. there are also other programs that you can look for such as the bbb, you can look on guide star.org to view an organization's tax returns. >> reporter: and you think this is really important because if you are going to give your money away you shouldn't just think with your heart but with your head. you have to make a sensible decision to make sure its being well used. >> that's right. >> if you are making a small donation that's probably a low risk transaction. if you are getting a call at your home about a significant donation, i would suggest learning more about the organization and not just give over the phone. ask them to send you some information in the mail and make sure they have the probably disclosures. >> all right. you can go to website to learn more and the bbb to get all the information you need. thank you for your time. >> thank you. pleasure. >> thank you.
