Want to know what young people thought of the Federal Budget?
We asked them for you!
All the young people we talked to said they wanted to be consulted more on things that concerned them and be involved in the solutions.

I couldn’t have said it better myself, Greg Jericho. We saw #foodsecurity improve when #JobSeeker was increased during COVID. When you live below the poverty line, reliable access to healthy food is completely out of reach without #foodrelief . And so it continues. #RaiseTheRate

Speaking to ABC News Breakfast @CassandraGoldie 'It's hard to build a budget, but boy, it is hard to live on $45 when you're a young person trying to keep a roof over your head in a completely unaffordable rental market.' #raisetherate #youthallowance
'A 'future made in Australia' lies in the hands of our children. Prioritising their wellbeing is essential for realising this vision, requiring robust, consistent investment. The budget scores a B for beige— it should have aimed for B for bold. #Budget2024 '

🎉Wins reported for children and young people so far!
There's already lots to celebrate in #Budget2024 for children, young people, their parents, caregivers and advocates.
Here's what we've already seen reported in the media that can help every child thrive⬇
#budget2024
We are advocating for a children-first budget. We need policies like the Early Years Strategy and the appointment of a Minister for Children and Young People to dismantle governmental silos and champion what is best for helping every child thrive.
See our #budget2024 asks below⬇
'Wouldn't it be amazing if we had a minister for children who actually oversaw all these different areas that we're talking about that come together for children?''
