My question is to the Treasurer. Your budget spends a staggering $313 billion on Labor's stage 3 tax cuts for the wealthy, giving politicians and billionaires $9,000 a year, but has nothing for 5½ million renters who don't get Commonwealth rent assistance. In the middle of a rental crisis, why is Labor spending $313 billion on tax cuts for politicians and billionaires but can't find $1.6 billion a year to fund the Greens' plan for a rent freeze?
