Larissa Waters Instagram - In 2003 Labor opposed giving a $50,000 pay rise to the then Governor General and spoke in support of low paid workers.

Where are Labor now?

In a cost of living crisis, giving the Governor General a $200k pay rise in the same week that they voted against our bill to break up the supermarket duopoly, which would end price gouging in supermarkets, is pretty rough.

People can’t afford to put food on the table. They can’t afford rent. Medicine. Basic things they need to live.

Until all low paid workers get a 43% pay rise, the Governor General shouldn’t either.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Today the @queenslandgreens have launched a plan to take back $61 billion from big mining companies. Here's everything you need to know.

Larissa Waters Instagram - This morning I had the honour to speak alongside Zahra and Vashini at a rally to stop Labor's Deportation and Entry Ban Bill.

Labor’s proposed bill is worse than anything we saw under the Morrison government. If passed it will violate our international human rights obligations, rip families apart and whip up racism around the country.

In a country like Australia, we should be proud of multicultural and migrant communities. The Greens will always fight for human rights and for permanent protection for all refugees.

We need Labor to know that racism won't win them votes at the next election. Please make your voice heard and sign the petition in my stories.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Because we don’t take your dirty political donations!

Larissa Waters Instagram - Sorry Day is a day for Australians to reflect on and never forget the loss, devastation and pain inflicted on and experienced by our Stolen Generations. This includes their loss of connection to culture, country, loved ones and language. Their losses cannot be measured.

First Nations people are still feeling the devastating impacts of their communities and families being forcibly and violently torn apart and their babies and children being removed. Sadly this is still an everyday experience for many First Nations people.

We need to continue to recognise and honour their grief and loss but we also acknowledge the strength, spirit and rich culture of Elders and First Nations people. Their courage and resilience continues to lead the way.

On the first Sorry Day since the Voice referendum, we invite reflection on Australia's violent history and the silencing of First Nations voices and the discrimination faced by them every day.

If Labor is committed to truth telling, honouring the vicious history of colonisation and the Stolen Generations, then as we move towards Reconciliation Week they need to implement the Makarrata Commission and the recommendations in the Bringing them Home Report.

First Nations people are hurting. Their outcomes are worsening. No more broken promises. We need action.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Today is Public Education Day, and I am proudly public school, and proud to send my kids public too!

Here’s me on my very first day of year one at Rainworth State School.

Only 1.3% of public schools receive the bare minimum funding they need from governments. Meanwhile, governments are overfunding 98% of private schools.

The Greens are pushing the Labor government to fund all public schools to 100% of the Schooling Resource Standard at the start of the next school funding agreements in January 2025.

Labor is in government in every mainland state and territory. There is no reason they can’t fully fund our public schools tomorrow and make everyone #ProudToBePublic.

Larissa Waters Instagram - After low-balling minimum wage workers, the Fair Work Commission has told women to wait for another year while it considers whether feminised industries need a pay rise.

Spoiler alert, they need one now, and they need a Government in their corner delivering one.

Larissa Waters Instagram - For Queenslanders struggling with the cost of living, 50 cent public transport fares is a big win. But public transport should just be free!

More from @amymacsouthbne 👇

The Greens have been calling for free public transport for years - if Labor want to copy our homework, at least do it properly.

The government are still going to be paying millions per year for their privatised ticketing system. They have never published the annual costs, but it’s likely somewhere around $50 million per year. So why not scrap fares completely, save money and cut out a huge hassle for everyone?

At 50c per trip, switching off the fare machines would actually be cheaper for the government.

The Greens will still be pushing for thousands more bus, train and ferry services - like more frequent and reliable bus routes and more CityCat stops! Because 50 cents won’t mean much if you’re still dealing with a public transport network that is slow, infrequent, or stuck in congestion.

And what happens come February? Will we go back to having one of the most expensive public transport systems in the world?

In the next Parliament, the Greens will be pushing to make sure public transport is free permanently.

I’d love to see Labor pick up some of our other ideas to help Queenslanders with the cost of living like freezing rents and making public schools and healthcare genuinely free.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Nine gas projects. Five coal projects.

That’s how many fossil fuel projects have been approved since the Albanese Government came to office.

The International Energy Agency has said no new coal, oil and gas projects can be built in order to reach net zero by 2050.

But Labor care more about lining the pockets of billionaires like Gina Rinehart and the fossil fuel CEOs.

Larissa Waters Instagram - The Budget was the Albanese Government's chance to finally act on the calls from women's safety advocates and experts, and fully fund frontline domestic, family and sexual support services.

Crowing about a $9 billion surplus and continuing to hand out $50 billion in fossil fuel subsidies while refusing to provide $1 billion to properly fund women's safety would be laughable if it weren’t so deadly.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Women’s Environmental Leadership Australia has found that women are 14 times more likely to die in a natural disaster and account for 80% of people displaced in the aftermath.

Not only that, women face an increased risk of gendered violence in the aftermath of natural disaster. Climate action is a feminist issue, and we need to treat it as one!

Larissa Waters Instagram - In the last year alone 96% of the 37,392 people experiencing family and domestic violence who requested long term housing were denied access to a home, as overwhelmed homelessness services deal with chronic government underfunding of housing and homelessness services.

Domestic violence shelters are at breaking point. Frontline services are struggling to find space for women and children escaping violence.

By choosing not to meet the women’s safety sector’s calls for full funding for frontline family, domestic and sexual violence services, Labor is forcing women to choose between violence and homelessness, because there is nowhere for them to go.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Good to see Government campaigns involving actual experts like Chanel Contos, No to Violence and National Association of Services Against Sexual Violence to design much needed consent education.

Everyone has the right to age-appropriate, evidence-based sexual and consent education. Sexual consent education in schools can help dismantle the persistent rape culture that continues to harm women, and ensure everyone understands that only informed and enthusiastic consent means yes.

Larissa Waters Instagram - A review to improve prevention of violence is good, but there's no funding in the Budget for whatever this review recommends.

How many reviews will it take before Labor stumps up full funding for frontline family, domestic & sexual violence services?

Larissa Waters Instagram - I was so pleased to get out to UQ today to support @students4palestine_uq who are continuing their protest encampment. The Greens will always support the right to protest peacefully, and we are in solidarity with the staff and students protesting for justice for Palestine at UQ and uni campuses across the country.

Instead of trying to crush legitimate, peaceful protests and ban phrases, universities should be listening to the concerns and divestment demands of their students!

Larissa Waters Instagram - The Greens remain ready to work towards genuine electoral reform. The question is; will Labor do a dirty deal with the Liberal Party so they can both keep the donations rolling in from coal and gas?

Larissa Waters Instagram - Affordable, specialist legal services are a literal lifeline to women escaping family and domestic violence. In NSW alone demand for Legal Aid has increased by over 60%.

Labor must move to ensure frontline legal services have the funding they need, so that women and children at risk of violence are not turned away.

Larissa Waters Instagram - We haven’t seen the details of the Government’s proposed Deepfake Bill yet, but there’s no doubt image-based abuse is a serious concern, particularly for young women. And much like revenge porn, it is overwhelmingly used by men as a tool to harass and degrade.

It’s well and good for legislation to be updated to make sharing deep fake or AI image-based abuse a crime, but it would be better that the images weren't so easy to create and share in the first place.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Regional Queensland is so poorly served by the Nationals. It is so disappointing to see this disregard for the community.

We need a plan for Queenslanders that follows the science on emissions targets, phases out fossil fuels, protects farmland and looks after workers. Instead we get nuclear nonsense from a Coalition still firmly in the thrall of climate denialism.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Our environmental laws are broken, and Labor promised to fix them but aren’t! Without a climate trigger, the laws do nothing to protect the environment from climate wrecking coal and gas, and without a ban on native forest logging, precious habitat continues to fall.

Any environment law that doesn’t consider climate pollution or protect native forests is clearly not worth the paper it’s printed on.

Larissa Waters Instagram - The Greens are again calling on the Queensland government for an urgent review of the state’s archaic system of shark nets and drum lines, after a humpback whale was entangled in nets off Kings Beach on the Sunshine Coast this morning.

Queensland’s shark control program is more than 50 years old and has killed more than 85,000 marine animals including sharks, turtles and dolphins. It's completely out of date and isn’t in line with community expectations for protecting swimmers without harming marine life.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Care sector workers are predominantly women and their work is crucial to our society and economy. How is it acceptable to make low paid women wait even longer in a cost of living crisis?

Nuclear subs and fossil fuel subsidies aren’t made to wait for public money – why are women?

Larissa Waters Instagram - The sausage sizzle at Bunnings is supposed to be for local football clubs, not essential services.

Government needs to fully fund frontline family, domestic and sexual violence services. Women and children escaping violence shouldn't have to rely on the public's generosity at a BBQ to find safety.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Labor needs to decide whether to protect the profits of supermarket giants or provide relief to Australian shoppers.

The Greens will continue to push for measures that foster competition and lower prices.

Larissa Waters Instagram - The Leaving Violence Program’s well-meaning referral pathways will lead to frontline services who have received no extra funding - what good is it to refer someone to a support service that is already full?

If the Leaving Violence Program is the best this government can do for women experiencing family, domestic and sexual violence, they aren’t taking the issue seriously.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Labor’s proposed NDIS Amendment Bill will slash $14.4 billion from the NDIS and deny participants choice and control over the support they receive, while allowing the Minister to make further future changes without consultation.

What a blow to the disability community!

Larissa Waters Instagram - In a country like Australia, we should be proud of multicultural and migrant communities, but the Labor and Liberal parties want to demonise migrants to distract from their own failings.

Larissa Waters Instagram - A ‘build to rent’ plan that gives developers access to tax concessions from the government if they build private rental apartments - where 90% can be completely unaffordable - will not fix the housing crisis. And neither will the 10% with a laughable definition of affordability.

In return for the Greens support for Build to Rent we want to see changes to ensure that 100% of the apartments are actually affordable, by mandating that any developer who wants access to the tax handout must:
🏠Impose a rent cap of 2% every 2 years
🏠Define “affordable” as 25% of household income or 70% of market rate, whichever is lower
🏠Increase the minimum lease period to 5 years

Larissa Waters Instagram - Our kids are our future. It’s our responsibility to leave them with a livable one.

This Sunday 16 June at @littlegenovese in Coorparoo we’re hosting an important discussion about some of the big challenges we face as a community and a society. From climate change to the housing crisis and rising inequality, it’s clear life is getting harder and harder, especially for young people.

We’ll be talking about how we got to this point, and how on earth we tackle these crises for the sake of our kids, and all future generations.

I’d love you to join me, plus our brilliant Senator for Queensland, @larissawaters and local legend, community organiser and writer @nadine_chemali for this important discussion.

RSVP now via link in bio 💚🌏

Larissa Waters Instagram - ‼️TOMORROW NIGHT‼️

@mchandlermather and I are hosting this forum to discuss the fight back against escalating political attacks on migrant communities in Australia, like Labor’s proposed new anti-refugee bill, which will endanger the lives of asylum seekers.

Both parties have been making moves to scapegoat migrants for a housing crisis caused by the big banks and property investors driving up rents and house prices for the rest of the country.

In a country like Australia, we should be proud of multicultural and migrant communities, but Labor and the Liberals want to demonise migrants and use them to distract from their own failings. We can’t let them win.

We’ll also be joined by Remah Naji from Justice for Palestine and Rita Jabri-Markwell from the Australian Muslim Advocacy Network - two incredible women you’ll want to hear from!

Details and RSVP maxchandlermather.com/migration or at the link in my bio 🔗

Larissa Waters Instagram - Thanks to everyone who braved the cold (for Queensland) weather to attend our public forum and community dinner at Acacia Ridge on Tuesday night.

It was a pleasure to spend time discussing the real issues impacting our community, and how we can fight back against the ongoing demonisation of migrants and refugees.

Labor is currently trying to push an anti-refugee bill through the Senate that will endanger the lives of asylum seekers, impose harsh prison terms, and separate families through a Trump-style travel ban here in Australia. But you can help stop it!

Larissa Waters Instagram - First day of Senate inquiry into menopause hearings is underway here in Sydney! Key witnesses today include:
📢Employers with menopause policies
📢Pharmaceutical Companies who manufacture MHT
📢Women with lived experience

Larissa Waters Instagram - Vege patch update, I’m just growing chickens now! 🐔💚

Larissa Waters Instagram - Labor's response to the Senate inquiry on universal access to reproductive healthcare is now TEN MONTHS OVERDUE. Women and pregnant people should not be forced to travel hundreds of kilometres to access basic healthcare - which abortion is.

The situation in Victoria is the same in my home state of Queensland and across the country. Too many barriers remain for people experiencing an unintended pregnancy & the Greens continue to call for zero out of pocket costs for abortion, whether medical or surgical.

Larissa Waters Instagram - An absolute joy to have @mandy.4.richmond pop by my office in Parliament House - looking forward to seeing her elected as the Member for Richmond so we can have her in this place far more often!

Mandy only needs a 1.8% increase to win in Richmond, one of our most winnable lower house seats, and I for one can't wait to have her voice in parliament.

Larissa Waters Instagram - Spending my Sunday afternoon with Nadine and Rebecca yesterday was so genuinely lovely! This heartfelt discussion with two incredible powerhouses from the local community filled me with so much hope for the future, for our kids' futures and confirmed entirely my faith in our people-powered movements.

@rebeccaforgreenslopes's passion for education, her enthusiasm and her honesty really drove home what a hard-working member she would be for Greenslopes if (when🤞) she’s elected in October.

And @nadine_chemali's staunch advocacy continues to be awe-inspiring. Her recent work supporting @para.foundation is a testament to the force of her will, but also the power of community; can you believe @community4para has raised over $250k to support Palestinian families fleeing the genocide in Gaza in a month!?

Larissa Waters - 34.2K Likes - Julian Assange is coming home.

After 1901 days, Julian has finally been released from Belmarsh prison.

Our thoughts are with Stella, his children, and all his family and loved ones desperate to see him.

While great news, a decade of Julian’s life was taken by US overreach.

Journalism is not a crime.

Pursuing Assange was anti-democratic, anti-press freedom, and the charges should have been dropped.

To the millions of people around the world who campaigned to #FreeAssange thank you.

Larissa Waters - 1.6K Likes - It is no secret that family, domestic and sexual violence increases when major sporting events, like State of Origin, occur.

I asked the Department of Social Services what the Government is doing to prevent and address the heightened risk of FDSV during sporting events, and the response was pretty grim.

Running ads by DrinkWise (an alcohol industry-backed lobbying organisation) that share 1800RESPECT is deeply inadequate when gendered violence can increase by up to 40% on game day.

Larissa Waters - 1K Likes - The Environment Minister has just approved a massive new Gina Rinehart gas project in Queensland, which will run until 2080, well after Labor says Australia will be at net zero emissions.

It's no wonder people are increasingly disappointed in Labor – approving 150 gas wells on top of the Great Artesian Basin is hardly the climate action people thought they were voting for.

Larissa Waters - 642 Likes - How can the government suggest a 43% pay rise for the Governor-General - regardless of the person currently filling the role - when we are still drastically underpaying our lowest paid workers?

The Greens cannot support this increase to the GG salary, any more than we support the overpayment of any other CEO, executive, or senior public servant, especially not during a cost of living crisis. And especially not while the lowest paid women in our workforce continue to be underpaid and undervalued.

We’re in a cost of living crisis, we know people are skipping medications. Making contraceptives free - would make an enormous difference to people’s lives.

The Senate inquiry into reproductive healthcare recommended making contraception more affordable for all people, but Labor's response to that report is now 10 months overdue!

If you are currently enrolled as a UQ student, you will be able to vote on the three questions:

1. Should UQ sever ties with companies that supply the Israeli Defence Force?
2. Should UQ shut down the Boeing centre?
3. Should UQ financially divest from Israel?
A General Meeting is the union’s highest decision making body. If the students at the meeting vote yes to these questions it will become the official position of the UQ Union, but it is absolutely critical that there are 300 students in attendance at the meeting.

This is the student body’s chance to remind the university that their top priority should be accountability to their students. I implore all students to show up, bring your student card and vote YES for justice for Palestine!

The Liberals' nuclear fantasies are a distraction. Labor has 92 new coal and gas projects in the pipeline, and the 5 new coal and gas projects approved in the last year.

The major parties are making the climate crisis worse. People want action on climate change, not more coal, gas and hot air from the climate deniers.

146 countries around the world have taken this step. Norway, Spain and Ireland did so Tuesday night.

But Labor voted against it. Joined by Peter Dutton’s Liberals.

Even though their own election platform calls on them to recognise Palestinian Statehood.

Everyone of us are judged for the things we say, the way we vote, and the actions we take in this Parliament - especially when thousands upon thousands of lives are at stake.

We will not stop pushing Labor to stop the two-way arms trade with Israel, sanction Netanyahu and his war cabinet, expel the Israeli ambassador, and stop supporting this horrific invasion.

We will not stop until Palestine is free. 🇵🇸
