Please stand up for cleaner transport
I am writing to express my concern about the Victorian Government's legislation to introduce an electric vehicle tax. As your constituent, I urge you to vote against this dangerous proposal. Electric vehicles are the future: they cut transport emissions, can run on clean solar and wind energy, and are cheaper to run and maintain. But one of the big barriers stopping Australians from adopting electric cars is the cost. Incentivising EVs, like is done in the ACT and around the world, helps bring down the cost and make the new technology affordable for more Australians. The tax proposed in Victoria right now is the exact opposite and will delay the rollout of electric vehicles. Delaying the switch to electric transport is bad news for Australians' health, hip pocket and the climate – and sits at odds with Victoria’s clean energy leadership. While the rest of the world is encouraging the uptake of cleaner EVs, Australia is already an electric transport laggard and introducing this tax now will only make the situation worse. I’m calling on you to please vote against introducing an EV tax now while the industry is still finding its feet.
