The Greens have slammed the NSW Budget released today by Treasurer Matt Kean, calling it an insulting budget that is first and foremost about spin.

Abigail called out the Coalition Government on their lack of action on cleaning up coal ash after every possible piece of evidence crying out for action.

A year has passed since the Government committed to criminalising coercive control, and we still have yet to see any action.

Yesterday’s extraordinary armed police raid on a private property in the Blue Mountains to arrest climate campaigners under suspicion of planning a peaceful protest action was an astonishing and brazen overreach of police powers, says Greens NSW MP Abigail Boyd.

The NSW Government’s new so-called ‘whole of life e-tracking system’ is a sham that does not address the concerns of greyhound advocates that dogs are being transferred out of the industry (and so out of the tracking system) on paper and killed in reality. 

Greens NSW MP Abigail Boyd has condemned today’s extraordinary police action to raid a property in the Blue Mountains and arrest climate campaigners under suspicion of planning a peaceful protest action.

Responding to NSW shared equity scheme announcement today as part of the upcoming state budget, Greens Housing spokesperson Jenny Leong MP and Greens Treasury spokesperson Abigail Boyd MLC have called for a broader more equitable response to the housing crisis.

Abigail passed THREE Greens' disability amendments into law this week, an incredible achievement which will now see LGBTIQ+ people with disability have their needs fully recognised, require Gov to undergo better community consultation, and strengthen the State Disability Inclusion Plan. 

Tonight Abigail gave a powerful Adjournment speech about the absolutely abysmal job this LNP Government has done at looking after our communities during crisis after crisis.

Abigail moved several amendments to the Disability Inclusion Act to ensure all people with disability in our state are looked after. The LNP Government and the Labor Party blocked the majority of Abigail's amendments, however we were able to pass three amends!

Today Abigail supported amendments to our child protection systems, making note that ongoing genuine consultation with community stakeholders is essential at every step. 

Abigail took the opportunity to urge the Government to do their job of updating our outdated animal welfare laws.

Today Abigail initiated her first ever Matter of Public Importance - on the extremely real and pressing issue of the energy crisis and its impact on cost-of-living pressures.

Abigail questioned the Minister for Roads today about the Government's privatisation of toll roads across the State at the profit of big corps such as Transurban.

Abigail introduced a new Greens bill for a wellbeing budget that looks after us all.
