Have Your Say: Federal Election on 3rd May 2025
The Election has been called the election for Saturday 3rd May.
The world has thrown a lot at Australia these last few years. By working together, we’ve lowered inflation, got wages moving, delivered a tax cut for every taxpayer, delivered energy bill relief and opened new free Medicare Urgent Care Clinics, we’re starting to turn a corner.
The future we want for our country is in your hands now. That’s why this election matters.
A re-elected Labor government will keep delivering for you by:
- Strengthening Medicare with more bulk billing GPs and Medicare Urgent Care Clinics so all Australians can see a doctor for free
- Continue the largest housing build in Australia’s history
- Make TAFE free and cut HECS debts by 20% to make sure we can train the workers we need
- Deliver real cost of living relief
