Amy Martin is a double winner in the Public Option Please (POP) art contest launched earlier this fall to cut through the rhetoric inside the Washington Beltway and provide a vehicle for artists to make the moral case for a public health insurance option as a part of health care reform.

Martin’s artwork received the highest number of votes by visitors to the POP website for the Public Choice award from among six finalists. The finalists (click here to see all) were selected by a panel of judges, including AFL-CIO Executive Vice President Arlene Holt Baker.

The judges also selected Martin’s piece as the first place winner. The winning artwork will be featured on posters, T-shirts and stickers. Martin will receive $1,750 for winning the two top prizes.
