On Tuesday 18 Feb, nearly 4000 protesters like you took to the streets to stop Napthine's Silencing Act.
When the amendments were debated in Parliament, a number of Labor MPs spoke passionately against the bill, and have promised to repeal Napthine's Silencing Act if elected.
With Napthine's Liberals controlling the upper house, Napthine's Silencing Act is likely to pass the legislative council next week, but there are still 3 things you can do to stop Victoria being silenced for good!
Write to one of these Liberal members of the legislative council
telling them why you oppose Napthine's Silencing Act. These Liberal MPs are likely to vote in favour of the bill - they should be accountable to you for their actions.
List of Liberal MPs in the legislative council
Thank one of the MPs who spoke against the bill
and let the Labor party know that repealing the bill has popular support.
