1 minute phonecall action: demand community accommodation for refugees

Call acting Immigration Minister Alan Tudge and demand he release people detained in hotels to safe community accommodation now.

The Australian Government is detaining around 200 people, brought from offshore detention to Australia for medical care, in onshore hotels.

When you hear ‘hotels’, it’s easy to think that people are better off there. But in reality, these are still places of detention – people have been detained in crowded rooms for months.

But, the movement demanding their release is growing. And right now, every voice matters. 

Leave a phone message for Minister Tudge today and call for refugees’ safety.
