Make Gas Giants Pay petition pressures Treasurer Jim Chalmers

politicsApr 19, 20262

The Make Gas Giants Pay campaign is running online petitions through GetUp to collect signatures pressuring Australian Treasurer Jim Chalmers to tax record gas company profits. Organizers say gas corporations are posting record-breaking profits while paying almost no tax. The petition explicitly demands a special tax on those profits and directs supporters to GetUp links to add signatures. Campaign leaders plan to present the collected signatures to Treasurer Jim Chalmers to push for a windfall-profits levy or similar policy change.
