We must solve the housing crisis
The housing crisis is the number one specific election issue that voters expect to be solved this election.
We are not building enough homes in Australia to give people the choice to either own or rent a home or have access to emergency accommodation.
This lack of housing supply is leading to rising rents, homelessness, and higher mortgages, which negatively impacts the well-being of individuals, families, and communities.
What kind of Australia are we building if we can’t even provide adequate housing options for people now?
Independent research by Insightfully found 1 in 4 say housing is the most important issue for them and 7 in 10 Australians say the Federal Government has not done enough.
Sign our petition to call on the next Federal Government to play their part in solving the housing crisis and make sure we bring down inflation, train more tradies, fix damaging industrial relations changes, remove red tape, and help states with planning reforms and building critical infrastructure.

Sign the petition to call on the next Federal Government to end the housing crisis once and for all.
