help stop changes to migration act

Life

The Federal Government looks like it is trying to pull a Guantanamo Bay on asylum seekers entering Australia - by detaining refugees offshore, does it hope to get around those pesky human rights laws holding it back?

The legislation is likely to be tabled early next month - write to your MP explaining why it should be stopped and download, print, sign and sign Amnesty's petition letter. More details on the Amnesty site.

Update: Link fixed. Thanks Matt!
