The ACTU is launching a bold housing reform campaign to tackle Australia’s rental crisis, demanding nationwide two-year leases for all renters and a dramatic expansion of public housing—aiming for one in ten new homes, up from one in fifty. They argue these changes will bring stability, reduce private market pressure, and inspire innovation like modular construction to slash costs and boost quality. With a long-term vision of six percent public housing nationwide, the union also pushes for anti-gouging laws, GST relief on maintenance, and smarter rent assistance, all while insisting landlords won’t be hurt—and that this is the key to safe, affordable housing for every Australian.
