Richard Di Natale: Volunteer to support the Greens: Greens Policy





The Greens were established by a small group of wonderfully passionate people just over 25 years ago. A quarter of a century later, our movement has grown rapidly to become the third major force in Australian politics with representation at all levels of politics. We now have Greens representatives on local councils right across the country, dozens of State MPs and ten federal MPs. 

And we’re making a huge difference! In the last few years we have led the introduction of a banking royal commission to expose the dodgy practices of the big banks; been at the forefront of legislating for marriage equality; given access to medicinal cannabis for people who need it; called out sexism and misogyny in the parliament; campaigned alongside community groups to stop fracking and new coal mines; pushed the old parties to establish ambitious renewable energy targets; been the only party to speak out and expose the injustices taking place on Manus Island and Nauru; led the introduction of dying with dignity laws in Victoria; and worked with local councils right across the country to change the date of Australia Day.

I’m so proud to lead a grassroots party made up of thousands of Australians who actively champion the things they believe in. People just like you founded the Greens, and people like you power the Greens every day.

The Greens have always been supported and run by people who believe everyone should be treated equally, we should protect our environment and we should all have access to the services we need to live a good life.
Our promise to you is that, as the progressive force in Australian politics, we will care for people, protect our environment and plan for the future. At the next election, we will do everything we can to create a better future for all of us.
