My pledge to you...
I love this community, our way of life and the stunning surroundings we enjoy.
Our region has everything you need for a great lifestyle. My vision is to see the Toowoomba region become a place that has everything we want.
Right now, our community is doing it tough under Labor.
Australians are poorer and less safe. Here in the Toowoomba region, we’ve been left behind by Labor.
You deserve a government that has the right priorities for our country and our community. Your government should make sure they get the basics right. That means focusing on tackling inflation to ease cost of living pressures, keeping the community safe, fixing our roads, ensuring access to healthcare, and protecting the great Australian dream of home ownership.
Wherever I meet people across our community, these are the issues that keep coming up. You deserve better.
As your voice, I will always stand up for you, speak out on the issues important to our community, and deliver on our vision.
All the best,
Garth Hamilton
