Higgins is winnable, but we need your help. We are taking on the most powerful forces in this country – the fossil fuel tycoons and property developers who fund the old parties. We’re the only party who doesn’t take money from fossil fuel corporations or developers – which means we rely on donations from people like you. Yet we are so close to winning this seat – will you join me today?

A note from Sonya

Sonya with 2019 Higgins candidate + Young Australian of the Year Victoria, Jason Ball

I am a parent, an educator, and a lifelong advocate for social and ecological justice.

I have been a relentless and courageous voice for people living on the margins, and with over two decades in the not-for-profit sector my work has moved millions of Australians to engage with causes that matter.

Higgins needs a representative from a truly progressive party, that’s powered by people instead of big corporate and fossil fuel donors. As a determined and vocal campaigner for climate action I will work tirelessly to push the next government to make vigorous investment in renewables and go further and faster on the climate crisis.

I’ll stand up for the issues that matter most to people in Higgins – a safe and prosperous community, and a country we can be proud to hand on to our children.

– Sonya Semmens

Sonya Semmens,
Greens candidate for Higgins

Your vote is powerful.

This election, we can win in Higgins, kick the Liberal party out, and get the Greens in balance of power. Together we can deliver real outcomes for our community and the environment.

In balance of power, the Greens will tackle the climate crisis and make the billionaires pay their fair share of tax. Then we can tackle inequality, kickstart a massive spend on public housing, and get dental into Medicare.

Help us win!

Our plan

We’ve seen what happens when we don’t invest in our people and communities. By making big corporations pay their fair share of tax – we can tackle the climate crisis and economic inequality, and create a better life for all. Read more about our 15 big ideas to fight for the future here.

Fight the climate emergency

We are in a climate emergency. Over the next decade, we need to rapidly transition our power grid to wind and solar backed by storage, and electrify our transport, businesses and homes to run on clean energy.

Fix the housing crisis

In a wealthy country like Australia, no one should be without a roof over their head. We have a plan to build one million homes over twenty years, protect the rights of renters, and ensure everyone can afford a home.

Defend and extend Medicare

Our strong public health programs have protected us from the global COVID-19 pandemic, but we must continue to protect and strengthen Medicare and our public hospitals, the backbone of the health system.

Restore free education

Everyone has the right to a world-class education. We had free education before, and we can have it again if we are willing to make the billionaires and the big corporations pay their fair share.
