Petitions
Carbon Pricing
To the Honourable President and Members of the Senate in Parliament assembled:
The petition of the undersigned shows:
Their concern about increases in the cost of living that would result from the Green-Labor Alliance's plans to introduce a tax on carbon dioxide emissions.
Your petitioners therefore request that the Senate:
Hold the Prime Minister to account on her pre-election promise and oppose any and all attempts to tax carbon dioxide emissions in Australia.
Petition received.
by Senator Abetz (from 1,411 citizens).
