#KeepTheRate. Don't let people on JobSeeker fall back below the poverty line.
I’m a Tassie grandmother who has seen first hand the devastating impact the low rate of JobSeeker (formerly Newstart) has on young families. Due to the impact of coronavirus, the JobSeeker rate has doubled - but it is set to go back below the poverty line when the pandemic is over.
That’s why I am calling on the government to leave JobSeeker where it is and #KeepTheRate.

The JobSeeker cut is happening NOW. Your Australian Senators need to hear just how devasting this cruel cut will be.
Can you write a quick email to Senators in your state?
Remember, the Government DOUBLED JobSeeker in the blink of eye. They can do it again, but they need to be politely reminded just how much this affects everyday Australians.
Please, be respectful at all times.
