Got a student debt? You’ll pay up to $50 less a fortnight from today.

Your time off should be your own, that’s why Labor made the right to disconnect law – because you shouldn’t be on call 24/7 if you’re not paid 24/7.

That’s just one way Labor is protecting workers – we’ve also recently passed new laws to protect penalty rates on minimum and award wages.

PASSED: Our bill to make cheaper medicines even cheaper - just $25 a script!

The Fair Work Commission’s today has announced a 3.5% increase from 1 July 2025 following the Albanese Labor Government’s submission recommending an economically suitable real wage increase to Australian workers.

That's an additional $1,669 per year for a full-time worker.

Tens of thousands of people on New South Wales' Mid North Coast have been hit by devastating flooding, and as a Government we are doing all we can to support those impacted.

It was a great honour today to be sworn in by the Governor-General as Assistant Minister for Defence.

I’m looking forward to delivering for all Australians, and continuing to be a strong voice for my community in Wills, both locally and in our Parliament.

📣 Just Announced: $3.7mil from a re-elected Albanese Government to upgrade Linear Parklands in North Fitzroy, North Carlton and Princes Hill!

This funding commitment is only possible if a federal Labor government is re-elected - and every seat counts to re-elect Labor.

A re-elected Albanese Labor Government will cut the cost of PBS medicine to no more than $25, or $7.70 if you’re a pensioner.

I visited Pharmacy 777 in Pascoe Vale and heard from Sara and other pharmacists on how this change will help thousands of their patients every year.

The Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme is part of Australian values – it’s not up for negotiation.

It was great to join the PM @albomp.bsky.social and Min. for Health @markbutlermp.bsky.social at Bell Street Pharmacy here in Wills to reaffirm that Labor will always defend the PBS.

The Albanese Labor Government is strengthening Medicare – that’s why our budget last night contains the largest ever investment into #Medicare since its creation 41 years ago.

That includes funding for 50 new Medicare Urgent Care Clinics we’re opening if re-elected.

The Albanese Labor Government is cutting the cost of medicines on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) – with all PBS medicines costing no more than $25 or $7.70 for pensioners and concession card holders.

The last time PBS medicines cost no more than $25 was 2004.
