Happy snaps from budget night!
The ACT Labor contingent was over 80 strong in the gallery during the budget speech. It’s always a fantastic opportunity to watch policymaking in action.

More homes to build, buy and rent.
That’s the goal for our Housing Plan.
With the support of the Federal Labor Government, we’re building 1700 homes for first home buyers.
It’s all part of our plan for an even better Canberra
Australia has officially signed on to the High Seas Biodiversity Treaty! 🌊
This means stronger protection for our oceans beyond Australian waters. And that matters, because what happens out there affects our food, our environment, and our way of life back home.
Labor knows healthy oceans means a healthy Australia. So next time you’re heading to the coast, know that Labor is protecting our waterways 🐠
Stage 2A is officially ahead of schedule! ACT Labor’s plan for Canberra will always support an accessible and green city.
Join ACT Labor today to get involved.
ICYMI: The Fair Work Commission has moved to abolish junior rates for 18-20 year old workers. 🎉🎉
After tireless work from unions across the country, the Commission has decided to end the discounted rates for younger adult workers. Where previously an 18 year old could get paid a mere 70% of the full rate for the same job as a worker aged over 21, the practise will now begin to be phased out from December.
This is fantastic news for the estimated half a million young workers who will receive a pay rise after this landmark decision. It’s also a great example of union power!
So if you haven’t already, join the Labor party at the link in our bio and join your union today! ❤️🤍❤️🤍
