Mark Jeffreson For Labor

Local Labor President Mark Jeffreson has confirmed he is the Labor candidate in the Riverina for the 2025 federal election.

The Wagga businessperson has highlighted the continued cost-of-living relief as his focus for the people in the Riverina.

“A Labor Government will continue providing solutions to the cost-of-living pressures that our community are facing,” he said.

He said under the current Labor Government people in the Riverina have saved $7.5 million dollars due to cheaper medicines and there have been over 39,000 extra bulk billed visits in the Riverina.

“Labor has delivered the Housing Australia Future Fund and the Help to Buy Housing Scheme to help to fix the housing crisis,” he said.

“Labor delivered the “Future Made in Australia” program to revitalise manufacturing in Australia, securing jobs for thousands of Australians.”

“Labor delivered tax cuts to almost every working person in the Riverina.

“The Aged Care System, Medicare, and the National Disability Insurance Scheme was in disarray. They are being rebuilt under the Albanese Labor government.”

“There has been much done, but there is so much more to do, and the Albanese Government is committed to governing with both eyes on the continuing cost of living pressures faced by everyday Australians and the continued relief from those cost-of-living pressures that can be provided by the Albanese Labor Government.”
