Campaign

Oppose oppressive laws planned for Tasmania

Thank you for stopping by!

This campaign has concluded and no additional action is required.

We encourage you to explore our website or click here to discover the latest campaigns that you can support.

There are moves to introduce the most oppressive laws ever proposed for Tasmania in the form of Conversion Suppression legislation – with the Premier’s support. 

The Tasmania Law Reform Institute (TLRI) recently released a Report that recommends far-reaching restrictions on your biblical beliefs and even your private conversations on gender and sexuality.

Parents, pastors, medical practitioners, and all Tasmanians would effectively be banned from helping anyone who is struggling with sexuality or gender confusion. If you do, you could be criminalised and deemed a child abuser.

While ACL does not support any coercive interference with a person’s life, the Report’s recommendations disregard freedom of speech, religion and parental rights. Read more about the many problems with the report. You can also watch this video for more explanation.

Please email the Premier, Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, and your MPs to ask them to conduct a proper inquiry before taking any steps to implement the oppressive laws recommended by the Tasmanian Law Reform Institute.

This is moving quickly so please send your email immediately and share this urgent matter with other Tasmanians.
