This petition will be sent to the Qld Premier, Treasurer, Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Minister, Environment Minister, and your local state MP. (If your electorate is held by the LNP, enter your details above to see the alternate message)

Your government now has a chance to deliver environmental, economic and social benefits for every Queenslander through more support for the Indigenous ranger program.

Before the election, representatives from Labor said:
“A re-elected Labor Government will continue to support this special program and look for ways to build upon its successes to date.”

Ahead of next year's Budget, please tell me what your Government will do to match these words with specific commitments to grow Indigenous ranger jobs and ensure strong operational support. This is a great opportunity for people and nature in our state, and will create jobs for Queenslanders where they are needed most.

Country Needs People is a national not-for-profit organisation born from the support of hundreds of Traditional Owners around the country.

We pay our respects to all the First Nations people around Australia and their unbroken commitment to keep Country strong on land and sea. We acknowledge Indigenous partners, Traditional Owners, Elders past, present and emerging and extend our appreciation of their support and guidance of our daily work.

ALWAYS WAS, ALWAYS WILL BE, ABORIGINAL LAND.
