Policies & Positions
Policy shouldn’t be about political spin — it’s about accountability, transparency, and building a platform that reflects the needs and aspirations of the people of Paterson.
I welcome your feedback, your stories, and your ideas. This is your campaign too!
Let’s listen, care, and act — together.
Recognising Caring and Care Work
Paid and unpaid care work is vital to our lives and economy—but it remains underpaid, undervalued, and under-recognised.
Supporting Women’s Health and Reproductive Rights
From reproductive rights to menopause care, women in Australia face high costs, long waits, and systemic neglect. It’s time to make women’s health a priority.
Addressing Sexual Violence
Everyone deserves to be safe—at home, at school, at university, and in the workplace. But sexual violence continues unchecked, and the services meant to help survivors are underfunded or missing altogether.
Addressing Domestic Violence
We all deserve to be safe at home—free from fear and violence. But too many in our communities, especially women and children, are being failed by underfunded systems and services.
