Labor is taking urgent steps to shield Australians from the worst of the energy price spikes.
Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine is pushing prices to historic levels across the world.
And almost a decade of inaction on energy by the former Federal government has made the situation even worse in Australia.

And now, the national Energy Price Relief Plan will give real relief to households right across Australia in this unprecedented situation.
