1 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:08,480 Speaker 1: From the Daily Os I'm Emma Gillespie, I'm Billy forit, 2 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: Simon's It's Wednesday, the second of April. Here's what's making headlines. 3 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 2: Suceeding new hate speech laws have passed Victoria's parliament after 4 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 2: the Labor government reached a deal with the Greens. The 5 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 2: new legislation will introduce new criminal offenses for serious vilification 6 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 2: and strengthen existing protections against vilification. The law will include gender, identity, 7 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 2: sexual orientation and disability protections. The opposition voted against the legislation, 8 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 2: saying it will create issues clogging up the courts. They 9 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 2: also said that it will see people pursue each other 10 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 2: rather than working together to educate each other to actually 11 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 2: create the society we want going forward. 12 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 1: Thousands of doctors across New South Wales will proceed with 13 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: planned strikes next week after negotiations broke down with the 14 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: state government. Doctors will take industrial action from the eighth 15 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: of April to the tenth of April, that's Tuesday to 16 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: Thursday next week, with public hospital staffing to be reduced 17 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 1: to public holiday levels. According to union organizers, the action 18 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: means that elective surgeries will be postponed outpatient clinics and 19 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: non urgent consultations will be canceled and non urgent medical 20 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: procedures will be rescheduled. New South Wales Health Minister Ryan 21 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: Parks said he will take the most senior health officials 22 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: offline for a two week period to quote, try and 23 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: see if we can get a better outcome that keeps 24 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,639 Speaker 1: patients safe, that keeps our doctors in place. 25 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 2: Democratic Senator Cory Booker, a one time presidential candidate, has 26 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 2: spoken on the Senate floor in the US for over 27 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 2: twenty five hours, breaking the record for the longest speech 28 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 2: on the Senate floor in history. Booker said he would 29 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 2: speak until physically unable to continue in protests of the 30 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: Trump administrations two months in power, and to call on 31 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 2: quote the people to stay up against it. To avoid 32 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 2: seating the floor, Booker had to talk continuously and was 33 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 2: only allowed to break when asked questions by Democratic colleagues. Booker, 34 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 2: who didn't leave the floor for the full twenty five hours, said, quote, 35 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: my strategy was to stop eating. I think I stopped 36 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 2: eating on Friday, and then to stop drinking the night 37 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 2: before I started on Monday. And that had its benefits 38 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: and it had its really downsides. Now, if you're wondering 39 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 2: if he went to the bathroom, I did just do 40 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 2: a quick google, and no, he wasn't allowed to leave 41 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: the Senate to go to the bathroom. But he did 42 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 2: avoid a question about whether he was wearing a nappy. Interesting, 43 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 2: which I think is a pretty smart strategy. But we 44 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: won't be asking too many more details for that because 45 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 2: it will probably be too much information. 46 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 3: Moving swiftly along to today's good news to get us 47 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 3: out of here, A group of around twenty elderly women 48 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 3: who worked in US factories on the home front during 49 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 3: World War Two have been honored with National Service medals. 50 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: The women were among five million workers known as Rosy 51 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: the Riveters, who worked in industries like welding and weapons 52 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: manufacturing to aid America's war efforts. They performed jobs traditionally 53 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: reserved for men at the time and were considered women's 54 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: rights trailblazers. The National World War II Museum in New 55 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: Orleans hosted a ceremony this week where eighteen surviving Roses 56 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: received the Congressional Gold Medal. One hundred year old Mary 57 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: Maski and Jello was among the honorees. She said, I 58 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: feel proud at what I did. The museum said the 59 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: real life wartime rosies helped pave the way for future generations. 60 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: That's the latest from the daly Ovs newsroom.
