Thank you to my Canberra colleague Sharon Claydon for showing me around her electorate of Newcastle.

Labor wants to close the gap between men's and women's retirement incomes — and one of the ways we can do that is by paying super on top of Paid Parental Leave.

Today we're launching Working for Women: A National Strategy for Gender Equality.

It's a first for our country and it will drive action to improve women's lives over the next 10 years.

Spent the day in Newcastle with Sharon Claydon to talk with locals here about scam awareness and prevention tips.

We're really passionate about putting a stop to scammers, and through our National Anti-Scam Centre we're already seeing a reduction in reported scams.

Every scammed dollar had a tragedy behind it.

This is why the Albanese Labor Government is working so hard to crack down on scammers. 👇🏽 Stephen Jones MP Newcastle Herald

Heartbroken by the loss of my dear friend, colleague & fearless warrior Peta Murphy. With a sarcastic wit and a sharp mind, she was focused & determined till the end. A life cut way too short but what an impact! My heartfelt condolences to Peta’s husband Rod & her loving family.

Public facilities like libraries and public pools keep our communities and clubs thriving.

It’s why the Albanese Government is partnering with local government to deliver energy upgrades and bill savings.

Greens and Liberals teaming up again to stand in the way of thousands of homes for vulnerable Australians.

Every day of delay is more than $1.3 million that does not go to housing for people that need it.

$250 million every six months.

Our strong climate targets are giving businesses the certainty they need to invest in renewable energy.

And it's working - investment in large scale solar and wind projects is up nearly 50% in the last year.

It's good for the environment, good for jobs, and for the economy too.

I say to politicians here in Canberra, the Voice may not personally matter to you, but it matters to so many Indigenous people on the ground.

Making a practical difference in areas like health, education and housing – that’s what the Voice will help deliver.
