Local activist for federal action to address the plastic pollution crisis projected messages of support onto a wall of an art museum near the US. Capitol to help promote the Break Free From Plastic Pollution Act. The projection was ahead of its reintroduction of the act by Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) and Representative Alan Lowenthal (D-CA) – the first comprehensive bill in Congress to address the plastic pollution crisis.
