2025 Election Priorities

WALGA's 2025 State Election Priorities

State pride runs strong among West Australians. We embrace our isolation, take pride in our rich resources and maximise our downtime in our blessed natural environment. 

However, whilst Western Australians know deep down that WA is a State like no other, the cost of living crisis, growing number of natural disasters, more extreme weather events, shifting demographic profile and desire to transition to a low carbon economy are putting pressure on families and vulnerable members of the community and ebbing away at our wellbeing.

The 2025 election presents an opportunity for the incoming Government to address the challenges facing Western Australia both now and into the future.
