Compare how Penny Allman-Payne and David Fawcett voted on transgender children and young people having access to gender affirming healthcare
Penny Allman-Payne
Australian Greens Senator for Queensland since May 2022
David Fawcett
Liberal Party Senator for SA since July 2011
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should not restrict access to gender affirming healthcare for transgender people under the age of eighteen, rather they should leave healthcare matters in the hands of the professional bodies responsible for administering such healthcare (e.g., the Australian Medical Association, the Australian Psychological Society, etc.)
Now this is where it gets a bit tricky… Two people might vote the same way on votes they both attended, so their votes are 100% in agreement. They might also have voted in a way we’d describe differently when looking at all of one person's votes. If the other person didn’t or couldn’t have attended those votes we leave those out of the comparison. Because that just wouldn’t be fair now, would it?
