WOW—New Zealand just passed legislation to give domestic violence survivors 10 days of paid leave to escape abusive partners and find safety for themselves and their families! This is such an incredible step forward! 👏👏 bit.ly/2Acqfys
@NARAL Read and shared last night. Incredible news and setting such a good example for the world.
@NARAL @GetThis_Occ @TurnbullMalcolm Instead of worrying about me in Melbourne at little to no risk of African gangs, how about helping out all Australian women at risk of their partners, dying at roughly 1 per week? #Auspol
@NARAL @therealdrix78 Wait, sorry. Do some people's governments actually give a shit about their people? Asking for 330 million friends.
@NARAL This is a great help to those women, but it's also very sad that it's necessary in the first place
@NARAL Congratulations! You Kiwis are the best. Let's end domestic violence in our lifetime!!
@NARAL @peterdaou Proud to say Ontario, Canada has the same law.
@NARAL And we have #FreeHealthCare too! Oh and first year of College is FREE! Plus our incredible Prime Minister, @jacindaardern just had a baby! #WomensRights #TimesUp #ProudKiwi
@NARAL Soooo Are we STILL the “ Greatest Country in the World”?
@NARAL This is great news, but I feel a little sad knowing that this will never ever happen in America
@NARAL HR: "oh hi Karen, it's just about the leave request you put in for next year" Karen: "ok, what's wrong?" HR: "so you requested your annual 4 week's holiday leave, followed by 10 days DV leave?" Karen: "that's right, very sure I'll have dv that fortnight"
@NARAL @KidCasteel Damn socialists, looking after the most vulnerable.
@NARAL What a relief to know there is justice somewhere in this world! And I am not at all being facetious-I’ve been doubting a lot lately🙃
@NARAL @JessecaWhalen In modern democratic countries modern democratic decisions should be reality not fiction. Thank you New Zealand 👏👏👏👏
@NARAL Go @newzealand ! Proud to retweet this news - @JustinTrudeau @EUCouncil @theresa_may @CNN @CREWcrew @PPact @womensmarch @DNC @dccc @SenateDems @HouseDemocrats Hey Western World get with the program!
@NARAL @fleurdeliselle A first step - what happens on day 11 when she shows up at work, and he's there waiting for her?
