One year ago, Australia voted for change.
The very next day, the Albanese Labor Government began the work of building a better future.
Every member of the Government is proud of what we have achieved so far:
These are strong foundations for a better future.
We know there is still more to do. We can't clean up the mess we inherited overnight.
But we're excited for the work ahead – to continue delivering for all Australians and building on our plan for a better future.
Investing in affordable housing. Continuing to strengthen Medicare. Creating more secure jobs and training Australians for those jobs. Making more things in Australia, powered by home-grown renewable energy. Investing in defence and national security to keep Australians safe. And importantly, continuing to be a force for stability, prosperity and growth in our region and in the world.
In our next year we seek a momentous change, one that recognises Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in our Constitution by enshrining a Voice to Parliament.
We know serving the Australian people is a privilege.
We understand that facing the challenges of this moment and seizing the opportunities of the future depends on bringing the country together. We are determined to be a responsible government that ends division and pursues lasting change. A government for all Australians.
We're 12 months in, there's more to be done, and we're not taking this opportunity to build a better future for granted.
