The 2025 federal election was held on 3 May 2025. ABA welcomes the re-election of the Albanese Labor Government
Our election priorities
ABA had four key priorities for the 2025 Federal Election focused upon the most important issues that need to be addressed for mums, parents and families in Australia.
- Full, 4-year funding for ABA's Breastfeeding Helpline and LiveChat services.
- Legislation of new controls of the marketing of breastmilk substitutes in Australia that encompass the full scope of the WHO International Code and subsequent WHA resolutions.
- A repeat of the National Infant Feeding Survey in 2025.
- Improve access to continuity of care including midwifery continuity of care.
Now is a great time to contact your new MP and congratulate them. Continuing to build this relationship will enable advocacy around ABA's national prioritise and also support for your group's goals.
