We still have time to stop this

Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke is reportedly considering restricting the work rights and appeal rights of people seeking asylum as part of a new package of migration changes intended to appease One Nation.

The proposals haven't been announced yet, and according to the ABC, they were internally contentious within the Labor Government.

This is exactly why this moment and how we respond to it matters.

If Labor MPs and senators hear from enough people before these proposals are announced, they can take those concerns straight into the party room and urge Minister Burke to back down.

Can you call your Labor representative today and urge them to reject One Nation’s divisive policies?

Instead of rejecting One Nation’s fearmongering, the Albanese Government is considering changes that will make life even harder for people seeking asylum in Australia. People who deserve the chance to rebuild their lives in safety, to work and support themselves — not be pushed further into uncertainty.

If these reports become reality, it would be a devastating step backwards.

Politicians don't make decisions in a vacuum, they pay attention to what the public is saying – but we need to act now.
