Make Gas Giants Pay

Make gas giants pay v2 Gas corporations are making billions from Australian gas – while the rest of us pay higher energy bills.

They extract publicly owned gas, sell it overseas at record profits, and pay next to nothing back in tax. In Queensland alone, gas companies made $36 billion in a single year and paid ZERO tax.

Meanwhile, Australians are told there's no money for housing, energy relief or essential services.

Treasurer Jim Chalmers can fix this – with a 25% tax on gas exports that could raise billions for the things communities actually need.

Australia's gas belongs to Australians. It's time we got a fair return.

TO TREASURER JIM CHALMERS

Gas corporations are making billions from Australian gas while paying next to nothing in tax. Australians are paying more for energy, while gas giants profit from publicly owned resources.

We demand that you implement a 25% tax on gas exports that could raise billions for the things communities actually need.

Fix the broken system. Make gas companies pay their fair share.
