I'm working with Kevin Rudd and Labor to:
- Invest in the infrastructure we need for tomorrow in our local economy today - Stimulate the economy and help protect jobs and cushion us from the full impact of the global financial recession - Build a modern Australia, ready to face the challenges of the future.
My office has a range of information kits and can offer assistance with Federal Government issues.
I want to hear your thoughts on issues affecting our area and make sure I continue to represent your views in Canberra. | |
