A liveable basic income would help close the gaps by radically simplifying access to income support, so no family has to make impossible choices about putting food on the table or paying bills. And right now, the Senate is considering a bill that if passed, would be a crucial step to making this a reality.
A key group of Senators are reviewing the bill to get it to the next stage. But we’ve heard from our allies that they’re dragging out the process and getting bogged down in technical debate.
Will you call key Senators now to tell them to pass Bill S-233 and establish a basic income framework without delay?
