Tell Minister Burke: It’s time to lead with fairness

At the last Federal Election, we sent a powerful message: we reject fear and division. Voters across the country demanded a more compassionate and just approach – including for refugees and people seeking asylum.
Now, with a renewed majority and a clear mandate, the Albanese Government has the power – and the responsibility – to deliver lasting change.
But the first 100 days of Parliament will set the tone. That’s why we must act now.
Email Minister for Home Affairs Tony Burke today and urge him to deliver on Labor’s promise to lead with humanity.
The government must:
- Grant permanent protection to 8,500 people failed by the broken Fast Track process
- Evacuate and resettle refugees still trapped offshore
- Repeal the cruel and unnecessary 2024 Migration Act amendments
- Restore basic rights like work, study, Medicare and a safety net for people seeking asylum
For too long, people have been left in limbo, punished by policies designed to harm. This is Labor’s moment to put fairness into action.
Add your voice now. Demand justice for refugees and people seeking asylum.
