The state of AWA

THE Artist Welfare Protection and Information Act of 2015, which I tend to call the Artist Welfare Act for the more apt acronym AWA, has become the grand project of obviously-presidential-candidate-but-still-denying-it Senator Grace Poe.

I’ve written about AWA before in this space, when it made the rounds of Facebook in early May. But in the past two weeks or so, it has been used as part of the burgeoning political propaganda and electoral campaign of not-yet-running-for-president-senator-Poe.
