“I don’t let my own views taint who should get funding. It’s a tough call ethier way, but this is not based on an ideology,” Elise Archer in response to @rosaliewoodruff and the discussion about whether abortion has been politicised during this election #WHTforum #politas

“As a woman and a feminist, it is my personal commitment to ensure that we have complete autonomy over our bodies,” @EllaforDenison addressing affordable and equitable access to abortion procedures in Tasmania’s public health system #WHTforum #politas

On how their government would improve access to mental health services, @rosaliewoodruff states “...we would look seriously at how we address trauma. I believe we could make significant progress in addressing mental health issues by examining that link,” #WHTforum #politas

“Our children are facing a shorter life expectancy than us. We have to invest in both public and preventable health to tackle this issue,” @rosaliewoodruff discussing how we can approach intergenerational inequity in Tasmania #WHTforum #politas

“Housing has been one of the biggest issues that has confronted me when door knocking in recent weeks,” @EllaforDenison on housing affordability in Tasmania #WHTforum #politas

“It’s an important issue and a high priority area for any government to address,” - Elise Archer on tackling housing affordability for women in Tasmania. #WHTforum #politas
