UPDATE 23 May 2021: Great work! Our collective campaigning is working! News reports today are suggesting that the NSW Attorney General will be bringing forward his plans for overhauling consent laws in NSW to cabinet this week - and that details are likely to be revealed as early as Tuesday. We know that the Liberal/National Government is dominated by conservative men - so we need keep the pressure up. In the coming weeks there will be much debate over the details of the Bill, and the chance to push for amendments to ensure it delivers on our demands for enthusiastic consent. Add your voice to this petition demanding strong, enthusiastic consent law reforms in NSW - and to keep connected with our continued campaign. *** Right now in NSW the laws that we have to respond to sexual assaults are woefully inadequate. The way that ‘consent’ is defined within the NSW Crimes Act makes it possible, and even probable that Police, Courts and Juries will rely on false and outdated ‘rape myths’ to decided whether or not an assault has taken place. As a result, conviction rates are extremely low and people who experience sexual assault often don’t report it because they know they won’t get justice.   The NSW Attorney General knows this is a problem, but three years after he admitted to it, changes still haven’t been made. We urge you to sign on in support of our letter urging him to act to reform consent laws now.  The path to this reform is clear - a report commissioned by the Attorney General himself agrees with key experts, stakeholders and survivors that we need to apply a communicative model of consent within the Crimes Act. This alone won’t solve rape culture, toxic masculinity and the patriarchy, but it will go a long way to ensuring justice for those who have been raped or have experienced sexual assault. Tell the Attorney General to strengthen consent laws now.   Read the full letter here.

International students studying at tertiary institutions in NSW are not eligible for travel concessions. Every student deserves travel concessions. No matter where they were born or the colour of their passport. International students are under even more financial pressure than most - they pay the same unaffordable rents, the same taxes and the same other costs as any other student, but they also pay higher fees, can work less and don't get any support from the Government. Getting a concession on daily travel could be the difference between being able to eat or not, being about to get to work or not. It’s a small change, with a big impact. These students are a key part of our community and inject billions of dollars into the economy every year. We need to end this discrimination now.  In 2006, The NSW Administrative Decisions Tribunal found that excluding international students from travel concessions was racial discrimination. But rather than complying with the decision, the NSW Government passed new legislation to make travel concessions exempt from the NSW Anti-Discrimination Act. That is not ok. Help us change this now - sign the petition and urge the Premier to support our Transport Administration Amendment (International Students Travel Concessions) Bill 2020.
