Join the campaign to Raise the Rate and get Newstart working.
Newstart is not working. There’s been no real increase in 25 years
$40 per day is too low to give people the support they need to get through tough times and into suitable, paid work.
Newstart is a critical part of Australia’s income support system - the rate has not been increased in real terms in 25 years while living costs for people on low incomes have gone through the roof.
