The Cost of Living inquiry, led by Shadow Finance Minister Jane Hume, has spent the last two years investigating why Australians are struggling with rising costs.
However, despite hearing countless stories of hardship from everyday people, the inquiry has largely ignored the real drivers of this crisis: big business tax perks and corporate monopolies. Instead, Senator Hume and the inquiry have spent much of their time focusing on political blame-shifting, avoiding the structural changes that could actually make life more affordable for millions of Australians.
That's why together, we need to demand from Senator Jane Hume and the inquiry bold reforms that put people over profit:

That's why together, we need to demand from Senator Jane Hume and the inquiry bold reforms that put people over profit:
- Push for negative gearing reform to stop tax perks for wealthy investors driving up housing prices.
- Demand for more social and public housing to ensure everyday Australians have access to affordable homes.
- Ask for legislation to break up the supermarket duopoly, ensuring fair food prices for everyone.
- Demand affordable energy through regulations to stop price gouging by energy companies.
