ICYMI: House Democrats defeated a Republican bill that would have allowed employers to deny workers overtime pay or the minimum wage by reclassifying work as “job training” or “education.”
Six Republicans joined Democrats to stop it, and GOP leaders cancelled votes on two additional anti-labor bills. This is an important win for workers and basic labor protections.

This is why showing up matters. Stay engaged. Stay organized. Worker protections can’t defend themselves.

NEVER FORGET that Pauline Hanson and her Liberal-Nationals buddies voted for government-controlled cashless debit cards...

It was only Labor coming to government that got rid of these cruel government-controlled cashless cards for good.

Now, Albo and Labor are also making it MANDATORY for essential retailers to accept cash!

Thanks Albo for sticking up for cash!
