Growing up in Australia, I've always been proud of our vibrant industry and the countless opportunities it offers to millions of Australians. However, recent activities by the Australia Institute have raised concerns that threaten the essence of our industrial sector. I firmly believe they are not being transparent, and I am concerned about the potential impact of their actions on our economy.

The Australia Institute, a prominent think tank, is gaining influence in shaping public policy. Yet, there's a cloud of secrecy surrounding their funding sources. Who is financing the Australia Institute and what are their true motives? If transparency is not maintained, our scepticism will continue to grow, and trust in their actions will diminish.

Why does this matter? The Institute has taken several controversial positions which could be detrimental to Australia's economy if their backers have hidden agendas. The public deserves to know who they are advocating for and why. Transparency is essential in maintaining the balance between development and policy-making.

Facts speak volumes. In recent years, the Australian industry has provided jobs for millions, supporting families and driving regional growth. Any threat to this directly impacts our livelihoods. There must be assurance that the policies being pushed are for the public good, and not for the benefit of undisclosed foreign or domestic interests.

We are calling on the Australia Institute to disclose their funding sources and ensure that their advocacy is aligned with the best interests of all Australians. By understanding who supports their mission, we can better comprehend the motivations behind their proposals and safeguard our industries from potential harm.

Join us in demanding transparency from the Australia Institute. Our economy, our jobs, and our future depend on it. Sign the petition and make your voice heard for the truth.
