VOAVideo: Native American Lacrosse Team Refused Entry to Britain over Passport Issue

A sports team from the US and Canada is being excluded from an international lacrosse tournament in Britain because of a passport dispute.

So Britain is refusing them entry, and they've been stuck in New York for days. As VOA's Carolyn Presutti reports, the U.S. Secretary of State got involved.
