Behind on my #30dsysocialactivismchallenge. Harder than I thought it would be! But here's my catch-up:
Called my senators (Merkley and Wyden) to 1 support the extension of the ACA tax credit. And 2, to oppose the nomination of the Emil Bove. Donated to Amnesty International USA.

Every Democrat in Congress is united in opposition against Trump’s Tax Scam. The Republicans who vote for this dangerous reconciliation bill are voting to destroy lives — and the constituents that the GOP is screwing over will remember it.

This is a new platform for me. I'll be filling it with a mix of art and activism. Here's a recent egg tempera on paper on panel. Persephone Dreams of Spring. Looking forward to clawing our way out of the underworld together.
