Ask Me Anything with Senator Lisa Darmanin :)

Hi everyone – I’m Lisa, and I’m excited to be here for my first Reddit AMA!

Firstly no I am not Lisa Darmanin the medal winning Australian Sailor (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Darmanin_(sailor) – sorry to disappoint (lol)

I joined the Senate last year, following the passing of my dear friend and colleague Linda White. It’s been a huge privilege to continue her legacy, especially when it comes to standing up for workers and advancing women’s financial security – two things I care deeply about.

A bit about me (and feel free to share a bit about yourself too!): I’m a lifelong Victorian, living in Melbourne’s northern suburbs with my husband Luke, our two boys, and our two cats. I’m a proud feminist and unionist, a North Melbourne supporter (Go roos) and I’m rarely without a Diet Coke in hand.

I’m here because I want to hear from you – your questions about politics, policies, the issues you think deserve more attention or maybe my favourite places, or people of Victoria. So, Ask Me Anything!

I’ll be answering questions from 4-6pm AEST – let’s go!

Proof? You’ve got it.
