Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I call on One Nation to explain what happens to the businesses, industries and essential services that rely on these workers under its destructive and divisive migration plan. 118932
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 14/09/2026This week I’ll be scrutinising: Carbon Credits Bill: Ensuring reforms strengthen integrity & support net zero targets. Private Health Bill: Concerned it could place additional pressure on the public health system. Illicit Tobacco Bill: We need to crack down on enforcement, not cut excise. 0134
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 08/09/2026The Centre for Public Integrity’s new research paper should concern every Australian taxpayer. Public money must be allocated transparently, fairly and on merit, not according to political advantage. Australians deserve much better accountability for how their money is spent. 1187
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 07/09/2026In Parliament, I’ll be focused on aged care, including a dedicated First Nations Aged Care Commissioner; a safe, properly funded early childhood education sector; and proposed changes to private health insurance rebates for Australians aged 65 and over. 0156
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Domestic violence is a national crisis, compounded by a housing crisis and a severe shortage of safe accommodation. Last financial year, Mary’s House had to turn away 176 referrals because there was simply no vacancy. The govt must properly fund frontline services. 24717
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Australia must deliver for our regional neighbours at the Pacific Islands Forum. The United Nations has warned that global warming is likely to exceed 1.5°C within the next few years, while stressing that the goal must not be abandoned 02312
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 24/08/2026A win for clean energy. After sustained crossbench and industry pressure, the Govt has extended the 50% CGT concession for foreign renewable energy investment from 2030 to 2040, providing greater certainty for the investment Australia needs to reach net zero. 14016
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 20/08/202645 women and 19 children have been killed by violence this year. While we were in the chamber debating this motion, news broke of another alleged sexual assault of a girl by three teenage boys.

Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Coastal flooding is a growing climate risk for communities like ours. Rising seas, extreme rainfall and development are putting homes, infrastructure and insurance affordability under pressure. We need stronger national leadership and investment in resilience. 12510
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 17/08/2026My submission calls for greater accountability, funded frontline & housing services, action on economic and systems abuse, better protection for children & migrant women, stronger perpetrator accountability & safer digital platforms.

Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 17/08/2026A key focus this week is Labor’s gambling reform bill. It addresses just 3 of the Murphy Review’s 31 recommendations, and CID debate may be capped at 2 hours. I’ll push for stronger reform, and move amendments.

Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Evidence shows too many parents are being underpaid or receiving no child support at all, while some victim-survivors are pressured into arrangements that allow former partners to maintain financial control.

Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Australia cannot wait like a sitting duck for the next Black Summer. We are among the world’s most fire-prone nations, and climate disasters already cost us $40 billion each year. We must cut emissions by accelerating renewables, storage and electrification, and ending reliance on coal, oil and gas. 22511

Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 29/06/2026Back in Parliament today, with key bills on the agenda. I’ll be speaking on Universities Accord, moving amendments to strengthen protections for NDIS participants, and closely examining the Government’s proposed changes to social media age ban enforcement. More updates: zalisteggall.com.au/news 0133
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 19/06/2026A major win for small business after crossbench advocacy. The Govt will lift the small business CGT threshold from $2 million to $10 million, expanding access to existing concessions for around 2.7 million active small businesses. 3146
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Victim-survivors should never have to choose between poverty & safety. Family law can be confronting, costly and weaponised by perpetrators, while too many are left without legal aid, housing or support. We need a national royal commission into domestic and family violence. 1269
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 12/06/2026Today, my team and I are proud to launch the Warringah Electorate Office Reconciliation Action Plan, the first RAP adopted by an electorate office in Australia. 1156
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 11/06/2026Earlier this year, I moved an amendment calling for stronger safeguards where these extraordinary powers could be used on children. Australia can keep people safe while upholding human rights, proportionality and the rule of law. 24011
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Modelling from the NSW Net Zero Commission shows climate impacts are dragging on productivity, wages, jobs and food prices. NSW residents are already estimated to be around $20,000 a year worse off due to historical climate change, with costs set to rise further without stronger action. 23313
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 03/06/2026The Prime Minister once warned that selling off Sydney Harbour’s public assets would be a “retrograde step” because “if we get it wrong once, it disappears forever.” I’m calling on the Government to protect this site for future generations, not carve it up for the highest bidder. 47519
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 01/06/2026Here are this week’s bills scheduled for debate. I have concerns about the Tax Reform Bill - a large omnibus bill proposing significant changes across our tax system. While I support CGT reform for property, I am concerned by the Govt’s decision to extend those changes to shares & trusts. 6113
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 27/05/2026Leaked docs show that BHP delayed renewables, slowed electrification & weakened their climate commitments. And BHP reportedly received $622m in fuel tax credits after paying less than $9m under the Safeguard Mechanism. This is greenwashing propped up by bad policy. 18538
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 25/05/2026Today in QT, I asked the Treasurer what modelling the Govt has done on extending CGT changes beyond investment property & whether he will release it. You can watch the Treasurer’s full response on my website: zalisteggall.com.au/news 0167
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 25/05/2026Parliament returns today. 📚 This week I’ll be focussed on the Appropriations Bills , illicit tobacco laws and the NDIS Bill. I’ll assess each on its merits: whether it is workable, evidence-based and in the best interests of Warringah & Australia. Share your views: zali.steggall.mp@aph.gov.au 04510
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Violence against women and children is a national crisis. It deserves national leadership. The PM says his government is doing “everything”, yet frontline services remain under-resourced and femicide remains a national crisis. 15926
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 13/05/20261,049 days after the Murphy Report was tabled, the Government has finally responded by “noting” all 31 recommendations. It's not good enough - Albanese must ban gambling advertising. 05725
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 11/05/2026This week in Parliament I’ll head into Budget lock-up, while also supporting 2 key bills: 📑the Survivors Law Bill, to help child sexual abuse survivors seek compensation 📑and the Combatting Illicit Tobacco Bill, to strengthen enforcement against the illegal tobacco trade. #auspol #ZaliInParli 0195
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 05/05/2026The IEA’s latest report again shows Australia is significantly underreporting methane emissions from coal and gas - by up to 60%. We cannot meet our climate targets while ignoring methane. We urgently need accountability and action. 53217
Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 24/04/2026News that the PM may kill off plans to increase taxes on gas giants in next month’s Budget is not good enough. Australia should receive a fair return for its natural resources. Other countries, like Norway, have shown this can be done by using resource wealth to build long-term national prosperity. 1719388

Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 16/04/2026The High Court’s decision to strike down Victoria’s campaign funding laws is a win for democracy & a reminder that political finance reform must strengthen fairness, transparency & integrity. It also sends a message nationally as federal electoral reform laws are being challenged in the High Court. 415253

Zali Steggall @zalisteggall.bsky.social · 10/04/2026We know budget repair is needed to reduce the high interest costs Australia is paying on national debt, but Australians are already doing it tough & cutting income support would only hurt those most vulnerable. A 25% gas export tax is a modest proposal for the use of our national resources. 56516
