But first, a message because I support what should be basic human rights for all. In light of last Friday’s news, I will be including this link whenever I can on my site. Voting is a great start, but other action needs to be taken. Donating to Planned Parenthood is a great way to help. If you can't afford to donate money right now, share their message to help other people access the information and services they need. I am here to support, listen, and act when I can. Thank you. - Mikey
