Following Greens pressure, public transport will be free across Victoria in April! When the government feels the political pressure, good things are possible.

The government should use this month to improve PT services, to give people better options for getting around.

Unlimited rent rises mean affordable housing is a huge issue in our community, and people are really doing it tough.

This is a political choice, and it doesn't have to be this way. You deserve a home you can afford.

While fossil fuel prices spike, renewables are driving down the cost of electricity.

No more coal and gas - renewables for all. For cheaper bills, and for our planet.

Victorian teachers are the lowest paid in the country, earning almost $15,000 less than in NSW, and our public schools receive thousands less per student than other states and territories.

Our teachers deserve better - not just for themselves, but also for Victorian students.

For cost of living, energy independence, and the climate, the path is clear.

No more coal and gas - renewables for all.

We don’t think it’s right that the gambling industry can make massive donations and influence how politicians vote.

The Greens don’t take corporate donations and we don’t think big corporations should be able to buy influence. So, we’re bringing in laws to stop this.

🚨 BREAKING!

It's official! Scotland has voted for our bill to ban greyhound racing!

With petrol prices spiking, the Greens are calling on the government to make public transport free for the next month - and use that month to invest in permanent measures to improve public transport and safe cycling lanes.

(As you can hear in the video, the corellas are very supportive!)

Labor’s duck slaughter season starts again tomorrow.

It’s time Victoria joined WA, New South Wales and Queensland and put an end to this cruel blood sport. Sign the petition https://katherinecopsey.org.au/issue/end-duck-shooting/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=ducks

Labor & Liberal slush funds are being filled with cash from the gambling industry.

No wonder they’re more interested in protecting their donors than protecting the community from gambling harm.

The Greens are fighting to ban these kinds of dirty donations - sign up to join the campaign: https://greens.org.au/vic/campaigns/ban-dirty-donations
