Rachael Nehmer for Kooyong

Rachael is an advocate  for both human and animal rights, a resident of inner Naarm/Melbourne who believes that Government policies need to reflect and support our diverse community, and ensure the protection of animals and our environment for future generations.

Having worked in the tourism industry across three continents, Rachael is a passionate global citizen who wants to protect the amazing country we live in. With first-hand experience in dealing with adverse global events in her work, she knows the severe impact that the climate emergency will have on the Australian people, wildlife and economy if the causes of climate change are not addressed. Rachael is clear on what needs to be done: immediate action and innovative solutions in order to reach net-zero emissions by 2035 and restore her region’s rich biodiversity.

When elected, Rachael will work to introduce legislation to ban fracking and phase out fossil fuels; support industries to transition to plant-based alternatives and renewable energy; and protect native forests, waterways and First Nations sacred sites.

She will work towards legislating bans on live animal export, animal testing and factory farming; and she will be campaigning to end the cruel use of animals for sport or entertainment.

Donate to get Rachael elected! 

Contesting elections is a costly exercise - it's a $2000 fee per candidate to get on the ballot paper and then there are advertising and printing costs! We estimate it will cost us a minimum of $5k to cover candidate fees, advertising and printing for Rachael's campaign. We'd love to double or triple that to give her the best chance of being elected to represent AJP in the House of Representatives. 

Can you chip in to cover some of the costs?
