We have an Australian Bill! JOANNA EWART-JAMES, FREEDOM UNITED.

Dear David,

Australia’s Modern Slavery Bill has now been introduced into parliament! We have been waiting for this moment since launching our campaign last October, so how is it looking?

View our campaign for a strong Modern Slavery Act.

We are delighted that the Bill demands transparency from companies to show how they stop the exploitation of vulnerable workers. This is a requirement that goes beyond the UK’s Modern Slavery Act, which doesn’t make any requirements on the detail to be included in the report.

The Australia Bill also covers public procurement. This could make Australia the first country with a nationwide responsibility on governments to consider their impact on modern slavery when spending billions of dollars on public services.

Great progress but more to do!

The government has committed to passing the Bill and making it law by the end of this year! That means we have six months to support efforts to make it a strong law.

We are not finished yet! The Act should make provisions that:

-       Ensure victims of slavery have the support and protection they need
-       Broaden the number of companies caught by the new provisions
-       Provide for the appointment of an Anti-Slavery Commissioner


Our partners at Stop the Traffik Australia and the BeSlaveFree coalition have been able toss our petition to strengthen their hand in the many discussions they have with government ministers, officials and parliamentarians.

If you haven't added your name yet, please add it now!

The petition shows those making the law that the world is watching. We want Australia to make the most of this opportunity to help end modern slavery in a region that has the highest numbers of people in slavery and from where many Australian companies source their products – Asia.

In solidarity,

Joanna, Miriam and the whole team at Freedom United

THIS INDEPENDENCE DAY. CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE MAURA SULLIVAN.

Happy 4th of July, David!

I hope your holiday is off to a great start. This is a holiday that holds particular importance for me. I have many special memories celebrating our country’s birthday-- probably the one that stands out the most was with my team of Marines in Iraq in 2005. It was a busy day, but we took a few minutes in the morning together to pause and read The Declaration of Independence-- a reminder to all of us of the great nation we were defending-- and her values of equality, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
I hope that you have some time today to make new and happy memories with family and friends, and celebrate the 242nd birthday of our great country. We have so much to be proud of and grateful for.

Thank you so much, and happy 4th of July to you and your family!
Maura

THE FOURTH. CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE KEN HARBAUGH.

David,

Independence Day marks the beginning of the great American promise, the day we declared to the world that “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” were worth the fight. 
Today, we say thank you for our freedom, friends, and family. And, most importantly, we pause to remember those who have fought so bravely to defend the values we hold dear.
Hug your loved ones, watch some fireworks, drink lemonade. And remember that government of the people, by the people, and for the people starts with all of us.
Happy 4th of July!
In service,
Ken
