Hi, I'm Sonya Semmens, your Greens candidate for Macnamara.
I'm Sonya, a mum, NGO consultant and small business owner and I’m thrilled to be your candidate this election!
Everywhere I go, people tell me that they are disappointed in Albanese and the Labor government.
Our community is already experiencing the effects of the climate crisis, but Labor has approved 5 new coal mines since they got in.
Over half of the voters in Macnamara rent their homes – the Albanese Labor government is ignoring renters and stressed mortgage holders
And Labor refuses to take on the big corporations who are driving up the cost of living.
We’ll fight for, a rent freeze, for no more coal and gas and to tax big corporations so we can fund dental and mental health care
Change is possible. The first step is voting for someone who will fight for you and what you believe in.
This election is our greatest chance yet. Things have changed. Everywhere we go, people are telling us that they are disappointed in Albanese and the Labor government and can’t imagine Peter Dutton as our PM.
By turning Macnamara Green, we can keep the Liberals out and push Labor to go further and faster. We’ll be fighting for a rent freeze and caps, and relief for stressed mortgage holders, no more coal and gas and to take on the big corporations and tax them so we can fund dental and mental health under medicare and free childcare.
If you live in Macnamara: you have one of the most powerful votes in the country. Our electorate is one of the closest contests nationwide; the Greens are just three hundred votes away from winning this seat. All eyes across the country will be on our community, because your vote could impact the entire election and our nation’s future.
Together, we can turn Macnamara Green.
