Recent history: For Women's rights

Description changed from “the Federal government should implement legislation designed to protect a woman's right to bodily autonomy, physical safety, and ensure women are treated equally in the workforce. ” to “the Federal government should implement legislation designed to protect a woman's right to bodily autonomy, physical safety, and ensure women are treated equally in the workforce. (NOTE 15/10/21: This policy is worded too broadly to be accurate. There are several existing policies that touch on this subject matter, including "for increasing workplace protections for women," "for decreasing the gender pay gap," "for universal access to abortion services," "for buffer zones around abortion clinics," "for increasing availability of abortion drugs," "for criminalising "revenge porn," "for increasing federal government support for childcare" and "for making sanitary items GST-free")”.
