Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are asking the country for two simple things. Recognition in the constitution. And a Voice to Parliament. Today the Referendum Working Group has announced the proposed wording for a referendum that will do just that.
And this morning, Cabinet has endorsed the wording of the question Australians will be asked. For so many, today is the result of years of patient and passionate work. Now, the chance to make history and create a better future belongs to you – the people of Australia.

@AlboMP Zero new details, no limits on the new 'powers' and no justification or examples of what The Voice will actually add that Aboriginals do not already have. #VoteNOAustralia
@IsZomg How can you be so certain it won't lead to better outcomes? This is simply enabling the voice.
@IsZomg @AlboMP This will result in less representation and no one in parliament to approve of the input from this panel. Has anyone noticed how little regard and sarcasm five Senators receive who are currently representing ALL #Australians daily in Parliament! #VoteNOAustralia
