Elliott Chalmers

Elliott Chalmers is proud to be Labor’s candidate for Wide Bay.

He has spent most of his career working for small businesses and understands the importance of having a government that helps create jobs and invests in the services that support Australians in getting ahead.

Like many Australians, he is feeling the pressure of rising costs for essentials like rent and groceries. That’s why he is standing as part of the Albanese Labor team.

Labor’s top priority has been delivering cost-of-living relief, including bigger tax cuts for every taxpayer, 20% off student debt, energy bill relief, cheaper childcare, strengthening Medicare, and reducing the cost of medicines.

By working together, Labor has brought inflation down, helped wages grow, and seen interest rates start to fall.

Elliott will fight for greater investment in local health services, more skills and training to support local jobs, and increased housing development so locals can access affordable and reliable housing.

Labor is committed to building Australia’s future.
