Our parliament should work in the best interests of all Australians.
Yet our weak political donation laws mean that our democracy is for sale to the highest bidder.
Money shouldn’t be able to buy political influence, access or policy outcomes.
Our laws on political donations need to be cleaned up, just like the old polluting industries that exploit them.
The major parties take millions in donations from big corporations every year. The Greens don't take a cent.
That's why only the Greens have a real plan to end dirty donations:
- Ban donations from dirty industries like banking, mining, defence, pharmaceuticals, liquor, tobacco, gambling, and racing.
- Prohibit big corporations from accessing government contracts or grants within 12 months of making donations to a governing party.
- Increase transparency by requiring all donations over $1,000 to be disclosed.
Will you join our campaign to end the influence of big money on our democracy?
