AEU councillors support the Voice to Parliament, Unions for Yes!

With a referendum expected in October, the campaign to support a Yes vote for the Voice is gaining momentum. 

As unionists and educators, we know the importance of being heard.

The Voice to Parliament is a natural extension of our union principles of consultation and a collective voice. It goes to our fundamental values of solidarity, equality and justice, and our belief in working towards a better life for everyone.

The Voice to Parliament is about rights and recognition, and the union movement has a crucial role to play – the referendum is only going to be successful if we stand together and fight for it.

Sign the pledge to support an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice To Parliament.
