COVID-19 - No Worker Left Behind

Prime Minister Scott Morrison

There are over 1.4 million workers in Australia on some form of visa. They are spouses, partners and workers who have been here many for years and paying taxes. In the current #COVID19Aus crisis we must make sure there is a safety net for all workers.

COVID-19 doesn't discriminate by visa status neither should government support for those in need during this pandemic. Support equal access to welfare and medicare for all workers including temporary migrants.

Your wage subsidy needs to go further.

Migrant workers prepare our meals, clean our schools and care for our sick and elderly. They have established lives in our communities and pay taxes to our state and federal governments. They deserve equal access to financial and medicare support.

The Federal Government needs to expand the JobKeeper allowance to cover every single worker in Australia regardless of Visa status.
