I'm saying YES
This referendum is a positive step towards implementing the Uluru Statement from the Heart, written and developed by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people after consultation across the country.
The Voice is about making sure First Nations people are listened to when the Government creates policies that directly affect them.

If an overwhelming majority of people say YES, then governments are more likely to enact the policies that First Nations people have been fighting for for decades.
We will have the momentum for real and practical change when it comes to issues like health, education, jobs, protecting country, justice and housing.
We cannot let this referendum fail. If we fail, we go backwards.
As your local MP, I am committed to fighting to implement all parts of the Uluru Statement from the Heart – Truth, Treaty and Voice.
Melbourne has always led the way on big social and political changes, let’s do it again.
A better future is possible. Join me in saying YES.

Federal Member for Melbourne and
Leader of the Australian Greens
