Thank you, Dawson

Thank you for trusting me to be your representative for another three years. As the re- elected Member for Dawson, I will repay your faith by continuing to work hard and fight for our region’s fair share.

Saturday night was bittersweet. I celebrated our local team’s increased vote with family and supporters, while also mourning the missed opportunity for the Coalition to form government.

Labor has made many promises in retaining government, and I intend to hold them to account for our region. I’ll continue to fight for upgrades to the Bruce Highway and other vital infrastructure, demand real action on the cost of living, pursue greater investment in our local economies, and remind the government that regional Australians need access to affordable GPs and medical services.

To me, one of the most important attributes a member of parliament should have, is the ability to listen. Listening helps me represent all constituents in the best way possible. My team and I are here for everyone, and I welcome any feedback that helps enhance our region.

To my dedicated campaign team and volunteers — thank you. Your tireless efforts, long hours, and commitment played a major role in my re-election.

To my small but mighty electoral office team, your hard work and positive community engagement make my job so much easier — thank you.

Raylene, Jack, Shannon and Tom — you keep me grounded, humbled and grateful. Family is everything. You make the challenges lighter, the successes sweeter, and life better.

To everyone who voted for me — thank you. And to those who didn’t, thank you in advance for the opportunity to earn your support. I’m proud to be on Team Dawson and will continue working hard for all Dawson residents to build a stronger future.
