The Federal Government shocked Australians with their Mothers’ Day announcement to deny access to Government funded paid parental leave to 46% of Australian women. As a result, 80,000 families will lose out with $11,800 to be ripped out of the budgets of 34,000 of those households.

We are calling on cross-bench Senators to stand up for Australian families and vote against the Federal Government's savage and unexpected cuts to paid parental leave.
