It's time to make the banks pay their fair share of tax.

We have a plan to make sure the big banks are paying their fair share.

In the first half of this year, Commonwealth bank recorded profits of $5.3 billion.

The Greens' plan to tax the big banks in Victoria – with a 0.05% levy – would raise over $1billion a year and $16.5 billion over the coming decade.

HERE'S WHAT WE COULD DO WITH THIS MONEY:

  • 50c public transport fares 
  • Building more public housing 
  • Making healthcare genuinely affordable for everyone 

Over $200,000 of an average 30 year mortgage goes straight into the pockets of the Big Four Banks. They're making billions of dollars in profit every year, while everyday people struggle. We can't let this go on.

While the Commonwealth Bank continues to line its pockets and the pockets of its investors, many Australians are having to spend their savings on merely surviving.

That’s why the Greens know we need to tax the big banks, to make them pay their fair share.
