The yes campaign for the Indigenous voice to parliament will seek to persuade Australians that the referendum is a simple choice about constitutional recognition, with a new national ad campaign looking to reset a debate that has been dominated by dense legal arguments and political fights.

Yes campaign alliance director, Dean Parkin, says the new advertising blitz, beginning Wednesday and titled “Join Us”, is a “rallying call” for Australians to back the campaign for constitutional recognition for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people through a voice to parliament.
