Today’s figures show the substantial and sustained progress we’ve made together on underlying inflation.  Headline inflation has been at or below three per cent for more than a year and underlying inflation has now been within the RBA’s target range for nine months in a row. #auspol #ausecon

Your @australianlabor.bsky.social Government is making medicines cheaper on the PBS to help with the cost of living. #auspol #ausecon

The Albanese Government has just released a clear and credible Net Zero Plan to help Australia grasp the jobs and opportunities of the global energy transformation.Experts at the Treasury Department have modelled what a pathway to net zero could look like for our economy over the next 25 years.

Low carbon liquid fuels are a big economic opportunity for Australia. From the farm to the refinery, Labor’s new grants will help attract more private investment, build a new Australian industry, and create more jobs and opportunities for workers and businesses around the country.

More cost-of-living relief will roll out to millions of Australians from this month. From Saturday, more than 5 million Australians including pensioners, single parents, carers and Rent Assistance recipients will get more support through the regular indexation of their payments. #auspol #ausecon

New figures show the transformation under way in Australia’s economy with investment in intellectual property including artificial intelligence reaching $17.8b in the June quarter. AI poses an incredible opportunity for the country, and that’s why we’re seeing so much interest and investment here.

Twelve years has passed since this photo was taken, but I am just as proud to work with you and for you in the Parliament now as I was back then. We live in the best community in the best country and it’s a real privilege to serve as your local member and as the Treasurer. Thanks for your support.

🇦🇺🇳🇿 Welcomed my friend and New Zealand counterpart, Nicola Willis back to Canberra this week. Australia and NZ share more than a neighbourhood – we share a future. Strong growth, higher productivity and deeper ties across the ditch will keep our people and economies moving forward together.

The speaking list from 29 hours of chairing our Economic Reform Roundtable this week, with a big thank you to everyone who took part, made submissions and contributed ideas. The best progress in our economy is the progress we make together. #auspol #ausecon

We're putting a more productive economy at the core of our Government's second term agenda, building on all the progress we've made together on inflation, employment and real wages. It's all about how we lift living standards and create more opportunities for more Australians. #auspol #ausecon

Here's what a third rate cut in 2025 will mean for you. #auspol #ausecon

The RBA has just cut interest rates for the third time in six months. Today’s quarter of a percentage point cut brings the cash rate to 3.60 per cent and will make a meaningful difference to millions of mortgage holders around the country. #auspol #ausecon

This week's meeting of the Treasurer's Investor Roundtable was all about how we fund, finance, and regulate a more modern, more productive economy. Pleased to be able to lead discussions yesterday for our fifth meeting and to say a few words to kick off proceedings. #auspol #ausecon

Hoping and expecting artificial intelligence to be a big focus of our Economic Reform Roundtable, so I wrote this longer piece about finding a middle path on AI that makes Australians beneficiaries not victims of accelerating technological change. #auspol #ausecon

BREAKING: Our legislation to cut 20% off your student debt has just passed the parliament. #auspol #ausecon

Very welcome new inflation numbers are a powerful demonstration of the progress Australians have made together. Quarterly and monthly, headline and underlying, goods and services inflation - all down. #auspol #ausecon

The big priority for this parliamentary week is introducing new legislation to make medicines cheaper. #auspol #ausecon

We're delivering on a key election promise and introducing legislation to ensure that the penalty rates of workers on awards are protected into the future. This is all about helping hard working Australians earn more and keep more of what they earn.

BREAKING: We've just introduced our legislation to cut student debt by 20%. Here's what it means for you.

Whether it's taking 20% off your student debt or protecting your penalty rates - our Labor team's first week back at parliament is all about is helping Australians earn more and keep more of what you earn. #auspol #ausecon

I pay tribute to the life and legacy of a wonderful Australian, Peter Ryan. This is a devastating loss for Australian journalism and economics. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07...

Speaking w/ @bloomberg.com from G20 econ ministers meeting. In a world of volatility & uncertainty, collaboration & engagement is key to building more productive, resilient, & sustainable economies with more reliable markets & robust supply chains that benefit Aus workers, businesses & industries.

Enjoyed speaking to Tom McIlroy on the Guardian pod about a busy week engaging with our international counterparts, parliament coming back on Tuesday, our opponents and their approach to the reform roundtable, and getting back into reading. theguardian.com/australia-ne... #auspol #ausecon

The Tassie election is a choice between more farce and more failure from the Liberals or a fresh start and a better future under Labor. #auspol #ausecon

Tasmania deserves a fresh start and Dean Winter is the person to deliver it.   It was an honour to launch his campaign in Devonport today. #auspol #ausecon

More cost of living help is on the way from today. We're delivering meaningful, responsible relief for Australian families - providing real support right now and help for the future as well. #auspol #ausecon

Today's encouraging inflation data illustrates the really substantial and now sustained progress that Australians have made together when it comes to getting on top of this global inflation challenge. #auspol #ausecon

New figures from the ABS show monthly headline & underlying inflation have both fallen more than expected and are now both in the bottom half of the RBA target band for the first time since August 2021. Very pleasing to see more progress today getting inflation down substantially and sustainably.

This is why economic reform matters. We’ve made a lot of progress together in our first term making our economy more productive, dynamic and resilient to help deliver a better standard of living for all Australians. #auspol #ausecon

Early (frosty!) start to a big day, speaking at the Press Club about how we reform our economy together to make it more productive, dynamic and resilient in the face of all the global uncertainty. We’re lifting living standards and creating more opportunities for more people now and into the future.

Excited to welcome the appointment of Jenny Wilkinson as the new Treasury Secretary, and grateful to Steven Kennedy for our very effective partnership. Two outstanding people in two important roles. Congratulations to them both. Full statement here: #auspol #ausecon

Today’s ABS National Accounts show our economy continues to grow in the face of substantial economic headwinds at home and abroad. #auspol #ausecon

This decision is welcome news for millions of workers across the country and is recognition of the progress Australians have made together in the economy. #auspol #ausecon www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06...

Another month of inflation in the Reserve Bank's target band, low unemployment, growing real wages and two interest rate cuts in three months are all encouraging signs we are well placed and well prepared to deal with uncertainty in the global economy. #auspol #ausecon

New figures from the ABS show that headline and underlying inflation remained in the Reserve Bank’s target band in April. This is the longest period that both headline and underlying inflation have been in the band since the monthly inflation series began in 2018. #auspol #ausecon

First Cabinet meeting of the second Albanese Labor Government. We're getting on with delivering more housing, free TAFE, cheaper childcare and strengthening Medicare to build Australia's future. #auspol

Our focus is on providing stable, responsible, and methodical economic leadership and we saw some of the dividends of that yesterday with a second rate cut in three months. #auspol #ausecon
