Description
<p class="speaker">Steph Hodgins-May</p><p>I move the second reading amendment standing in my name:</p>-
- The majority voted against an [amendment](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?gid=2024-11-26.300.1) to the usual second reading motion, which is "that the bill be read a second time" (parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill). The amendment was introduced by Victorian Senator [Steph Hodgins-May](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/victoria/steph_hodgins-may) (Greens).
