Call a Labor Minister: Don't weaken nature laws!

Reforms to Australia’s national nature laws are being negotiated right now in federal Parliament. But the federal Labor Party is considering a deal with Peter Dutton and the mining industry to WEAKEN proposed nature laws!

Labor needs to hear from hundreds of Australians over the next 48 hours so they know the community expects them to make the right decision for nature. Can you help out by making a quick call?
