"The Greens are the only party who aims to help improve Australian’s quality of life, protect the environment and commit to climate action.”
Over the months leading up to the federal election Pheonix will detail all the Australian Greens policies through media announcements, public forums, social media, street stalls and letterboxing.
Pheonix grew up in Wagga Wagga and went to Mount Austin High School.
Phoenix is a young queer disabled person who has seen firsthand the failings of our current member and government.
“I’ve seen people go to hospital with scurvy because they can’t afford a doctor let alone the proper nutrition," Pheonix said.
"Our current member has left the regional hubs to fend for themselves, it is thanks to this we’ve seen a decline in the amount of support for those with financial hardship or a lack of housing. It is only through a member committed to helping those in need that the Riverina will thrive.”
Pheonix is an active member in the community who is committed to helping its members.
They’ve previously done volunteer work at the Wagga Mardi Gras.
