💨 Abstract

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has pledged to introduce legislation reducing student debt by 20% as his first legislative priority, reflecting a significant shift in focus towards younger voters. The Labor Party secured 88 seats in the House of Representatives, highlighting a diverse and predominantly female legislature. Albanese's government has been criticized for excluding notable ministers, Mark Dreyfus and Ed Husic, from the new Cabinet, raising concerns about representation and diversity.
