The ABC is under threat. We need to let our government know that the Australian community trusts, values and relies on a well funded ABC. Please let Paul Fletcher, the Minister for Communications, know that you expect the ABC to be sufficiently resourced to deliver on its charter.
Add your details to the email below and submit. You can send the email as it is, or write your own message.
You can also contact the Treasurer, Josh Frydenberg on this form and the Prime Minister, Scott Morrison on this form.
We need to let all politicians know that sustainable funding for the ABC is important to us.
So please write to and/or call your local member and the Victorian Senators. Details of all Victorian Senators are below. You can find your local member’s details here.
All parliamentarians are busy so keep your correspondence short, sharp and simple.
Some things you could include are:
- how you trust the ABC
- how you rely on the ABC for information/entertainment/children’s programs/etc
- that you understand that an independent broadcaster is essential for a functioning democracy
- that funding cuts are decimating the ABC
- that funding must be restored
Please pass this on to your friends and contacts so we can spread the word.
