Headlines// 7:15AM// Jessica has been a member of the Australian Unemployed Workers Union since it was founded but has been an activist since the 70s. In 2014, Jessica helped form a local AUWU branch in Wonthaggi, where they picketed job centres to support their members. Now she is on age pension and says she can't believe that we are still fighting Howard-era payments under the poverty line and the Morrison era of punitive penalty systems. Jess joined us on the show to talk about the upcoming picket organised by AUWU to protest the National Employment Services Association's annual conference.
